Just expressed colostrum for 5mins each breast as MW recommended (after a hot shower) i got 4ml today + 1ml from Thursday! It doesn't sound like much but she says every bit will count 🎉😊 #Excited #LiquidGold
No but if you'd like to you can ask your midwife if it's ok to do it. There's no harm in having extra colostrum stored for baby @lauren1996
@suzie80, thank you. Your tips the other day help & I remembered to get syringes etc from MW on Thursday x
Aweh right I understand now, so not everyone has to do this then?@sweetsesame xxx
I have gestational diabetes & would like to breastfeed when baby is born. Baby is meant to feed within the 1st hour of being born so his blood sugar levels can be checked, If for any reason little man won't latch on or I have to get stitches etc, OH or I can feed the baby with these. @sammy @jodieiokie @lauren1996
Congratulations glad to see its working out for you and you will have plenty of stores for baby when it's born
your welcome hun xx
