9 days til csection milk and nursing
I have yet to have my milk come in. Im getting a bit nervous. My first pregnancy, 37 weeks it came in. Im 38 weeks and nothing as of yet. Im just hoping it doesn't effect me nursing.
My milk came in 3 days postpartum this time. Baby will just go to the breast often and eat small amounts of colostrum (tummy is tiny at the beginning).. putting baby to breast often will help stimulate increased milk production. Majority of times there is no need to supplement.
Yea i want to avoid supplementing. So thats why i was worried about not getting the milk in yet. Thank you(:
You have colostrum already but probably not something you can get out on your own. Baby can get it by nursing. You'll have that for the first few days then your milk will come in. Baby needs the colostrum to start with not milk just yet. I don't suggest supplementing or your baby won't nurse as much as they need to and your milk won't come in/ regulate like it needs to
Do you think ill have to supplement with formula or will i be okay with what i have? When it comes in.
You will be fine! I'm all leaky but that's probably because I nursed my first till December. With her my milk didn't come in till a couple of days after and I had oversupply lol!
