Moms this is Breast milk right? I’m getting told it’s colostrum still ugh

@noahs.mommy, it’s ok lol

@walkers-mom, just saw your he won’t latch comment I’m sorry!

@noahs.mommy, he won’t latch even with a nipple shield he won’t open his mouth it’s tiny so I’m just pumping after he eats or while he’s asleep & hopefully I’ll get a good enough supply soon to where i don’t have to supplement formula

@walkers-mom, he does get more out being at the breast than pumping. If that’s what you want to do and if he’s able to do that

@noahs.mommy, I’m still giving it to him

@liz41395, he won’t latch even with a nipple shield he won’t open his mouth it’s tiny so I’m just pumping after he eats or while he’s asleep & hopefully I’ll get a good enough supply soon to where i don’t have to supplement formula

My milk came the day I brought my son home maybe the next day. Babies drop weight it’s normal and you’re colostrum is so incredibly good for him while you still have it.

You’re doing great mama! If you’re steadily getting 2 oz from a pump I’d go ahead and try getting him to latch on and eat maybe? Baby can get more out by sucking than a pump can get out. And it looks like you’re getting enough for a feeding. When I had Lilly they wanted me to feed her and pump after a feeding and offer her a little of the pumped milk too. But whatever is working for you guys! I know it’s hard. I wish I would have done it longer!

@walkers-mom looks like you're doing good

@motherof3nigerianprincesses, yeah

@walkers-mom does it just increase from there

@motherof3nigerianprincesses, most he’s ate is 2 oz so far

@walkers-mom that's good! Do what you have to do! How much are newborns supposed to eat per feeding anyways?

@motherof3nigerianprincesses, yeah I’m still giving it to him but am supplementing with formula because he dropped some weight

Yeap colostrum is that color!! You're going to want that! That's the good milk lol

@abbyannnella, I’ve been pumping every 2 to 3 hours..

I believe it takes at least 2weeks to come in.

That colour you milk will be for at least 2 weeks I wore breast shield they made the milk come on

@abbyannnella, ugh my son is 5 days old like when is my milk gonna come in

Yes it is it's yellowish like that
