I think you can add some maltodextrin to the boil, but I can't recall anything that you can add post-fermentation to add body. I may be wrong. I'm sure if there is any way to salvage it, a more experienced brewer will be along shortly to help. There's a lot of very knowledgeable and helpful people here. What was your recipe? Was it only like .5 lbs. of flaked oats?
I forgot to steep my flaked oats and just tossed them in once i put the wort into the fermenter. The fermenting process is complete. Is there any way to get a creamier finish cuz if doesn't seem that creamy right now in the secondary?

I don't have an answer, I do know however that the mods don't really like people clogging the forums with the same question asked by the same person in 4 different sub-forums.

Try posting your original question in the beginner's brewing section. A lot of the more experienced brewers respond there.
Hopefully you won't notice anything from your "dry oating". Adding any grain post boil gives a great vector for Lactobacillus into your beer. Adding grain to unboiled wort or post boil wort is actually a way to inoculate your wort to make a sour beer.
Don't worry about this batch too much but I wouldn't do a dry oating again.

Not that I can think of. You might get some starch or oils or something out of the oats, but hopefully throwing them into the fermenter won't have any effect.
Carbonation will help the mouthfeel quite a bit.
