Which cereal is best for boy sway?
I had oatmeal with a tbspn of peanut butter stirred in amd a handful or raisins for sweetening, all natural all good! What do you mean by fortified cereal? Maybe have one type for breakfast and the other for bed time snack:agree:
I'm a mom of 3 boys, and I used to eat a giant bowl (probably 2 cups) of fortified cereal every morning for breakfast and at least once a week for lunch or dinner. My typical cereal was raisin bran, frosted shredded wheat, low-fat granola, wheat chex, etc.
Good luck!
asmi - both oatmeal and fortified cereals are great for swaying for a boy! I ate tons of the stuff every day when I conceived DS. I used to love really healthy organic-ey cereals like the stuff made by Kashi and I used to eat Total or Total Raisin Bran sometimes too for the extra vitamins/minerals. I also loved stuff like honey bunches of oates which has nuts and granola clusters in it too for a treat.
Oatmeal is good for boys too. Not sure if one or the other is "better" per se, but cereals are a great food for boy swayers.
A cup or two of green tea with breakfast can't hurt either when swaying for a boy. Good luck!
And what do you put into the oatmeal an cerial?
Milk, yogurt? Or just dry?
I would add full fat milk or yogurt, both contain protein which is excellent for a boy swayQuote:

We don't have enough data to be able to say that. Eat what you prefer. It almost certainly makes very little difference even if one was marginally better.Quote:

Yes - please use full fat dairy or even heavy cream on your cereal or with your oatmeal. Sending you lots of blue dust. :luck:
I ate a ton of oatmeal and peanut butter for breakfast. I think Atomic called it Peanut Butter Cookie Oatmeal? It was recommended on one of the boy meal threads.
I prefer the full fat milk for cereal because heavy cream has less protein.Quote:
