Oatmeal helps along with lots of water. Don't worry about gaining weight you lose 500 calories a day producing and feeding your baby. Also continue to take prenatal vitamins. If all else fails there is that mama's milk tea. I never used it but people have told me it works well.

Oatmeal is beyond healthy for you. Oatmeal is a great nutritious breakfast for you. I'm in great shape pregnant and not pregnant. Never had an issue with it. Obviously, you should have controlled portions with everything you eat.

Pump and I heard fennugreek pills help. Massaging your boobs.
