when did you get milk in?

Question

How did your breast change third trimester? I was bigger before and now they are even bigger lol. I am 30 weeks 1 day. When should I expect my milk? Expect leaking and start wearing pads?

Answer

Some women leak colostrum prior to baby being born, some even as early as in 2nd trimester. I haven't leaked yet, but my nips were doing this weird thing for a minute where I thought I was going to start. My friend started leaking colostrum in her 3rd tri well before baby was born. And I've seen people on this board whose breasts became so engorged before baby was even here that they were advised to start pumping and freezing the colostrum...so, it can be quite varied. Know that it's possible to leak before, but most commonly, not until after baby is born.

Answer

Three days after I delivered my milk came in. That's when you need the pads. Good luck, love.

Answer

You get colostrum before milk. It's a bit thicker and will be what your baby eats for the first few days to a week. Milk comes in at different times for different people. I got mine while still in the hospital with my son. I was lucky enough I didn't leak until it came in but some people leak by like 26 weeks. Every woman is different.

Answer

Breasts do not produce milk until 3 to 5 days after baby is born.

Answer

Not does not come in until 3 to 5 days after the placenta is detached the rest of the classroom which is just enough to feed baby until your milk comes in.
