Will my milk come in on the day my baby is born if I've been leaking since 4 weeks?

the colostrum will come in first then your milk

your milk comes in 3 to 6 days after your placenta detaches from the wall, that's what signals your milk.

@gypsy.soul2, @beckahhkathleen well yea Ik but i see some moms breastfeeding on the day that they delivered

You'll get colostrum first your milk comes in 3-5 days after delivery. Baby eats colostrum first you can breastfeed directly after delivery

well you start breastfeeding that day because the baby is getting the colostrum its what helps the baby grow that's where the best nutrients are. and that's when they learn how to latch on.

it's just the colostrum. babies stomach is extremely small so about 7 drops of colostrum make them full.. they latch for practice and to get skin to skin @coraimasweet1204

I breastfed my son he day he was born. They get colostrum first then the milk will come in. Either way the baby will get what it needs

no, I've been leaking that long too, but it's not your milk, it'll take up to 5 days for it too come in, but in my breastfeeding class they showed up the size of your newborns stomach and it only takes like 10 sucks to fill them up for maybe the first week of their lives :)

&& the colostrum is really healthy :) it has all the necessary antibodies that the baby needs :) so it's not alot, but it's VERY good for them

@wrd2016, see with my first two I dont think they got anything or maybe I just thought...so I waited until I saw my milk finally came

this is how they explained it to us in the class.. 8-10 sucks can fill them up at first, so they get what they need no matter what, your body will produce what colostrum the baby needs until your milk comes in.. you will be fine :) I'm a ftm so I wanted to take the class. it was really helpful so hopefully I can get the hang of breastfeeding bc I really want to with my babygirl. I guess I'll find out in a cpl days 😮
