so I have a breast feeding concern ladies... my first few months of pregnancy my boobs were sore and I even started leaking between 5 and 6 months..... I'm almost 8 months now and my boobs don't hurt anymore and don't leak... will I still be able to breast feed? does it mean anything? I really want to breast feed is there anything I can do to enhance my milk production?
@kiss3sfroml33, I know right??? my first pregnancy was so easy , its true when they say every pregnancy is different
I'm new to this! didn't know there was a feeding section @kimberlyyyy I'll browse around thank you!!
Lactation cookies worked for me, I know some people say hopps in beer can help- I don't drink beer so I can't vouch for that but there's tons of things you can consume that may help. I've posted lists of things in the best feeding section here on Preggie
@kiss3sfroml33, yeah just wanted to make sure I didn't dry up or something :(
@kimberlyyyy, thank you! I I have been like a fish with the water and I feel like I'm still always thirtsy ....and someone recommended lactaion cookies and beer lol
You'll be fine! Mine leaked that early too and stopped but then started to leak again. It's colostrum that your leaking and that your baby will eat the first couple days after birth and then your milk will come in.
Take it as a good thing they're not hurting anymore. You'll be fine!! Seems like your body was excited for the milk to come in early (I have 2 kids and milk didn't come in until after baby was born). You should be fine after you have your lil one- just make sure you drink tons of water and eat oatmeal when it comes time to nurse baby. =]. I'm happy to see someone who wants to breastfeed- it's tough but it's so worth it!!!
@03marquezgirls, this is my first pregnancy and I had a rough start horrible morning sickness.. And It shocked me how much my body has changed from my hair and its texture to my boobs and nipples and waist. It's truly a beautiful process. And I'm so grateful I have no stretch marks! 😇
