I actually asked my nutritionist at the hospital about this because I wanted some chocolate flavor in my milk. She said a spoon of Boost occasionally is fine, but they usually recommend maternal nutrition drinks instead. Better to ask your own gynac or hospital dietitian during your next visit.

Keep pillows under your feet, though my legs still looked like two heavy logs of wood anyway!
