If I'm concerned about milk supply

Will I get the benefit of eating oatmeal if I eat instant or does it have to be the real kind that you cook on the stove? I've also heard beer helps. Anything else besides water that I can do to help boost my supply. The baby wants more than I'm producing now.

I had two packets of instant oatmeal everyday and it seemed to do the trick for me. And, of course, increase your water intake by A LOT.

I don't know about oatmeal, but I do know fennel tea worked for me. Good luck!
