Milk supply?

Question

I am only 34 weeks but I think my milk is already in. Sorry if tmi but I can squeeze my nipple and what appears to be milk comes out with my colostrum. Is it to early to have milk come in? I'm a first time mom

Answer

Colostrum can either be yellowish or a creamy color.

Answer

It's not milk...just colostrum. The only way you'd be producing milk is if 1. You were still nursing another child and therefore had an established supply already or 2. The placenta had detached causing milk production which would be very bad and you'd know it

Answer

And is 100% okay and normal for you to have some leakage

Answer

Colostrum varies in color. It is absolutely 100% impossible for you to be producing actual milk. You're just leaking colostrum, I promise. If you're that worried...ask your doctor. Milk does not come in until days after the placenta detaches (after birth) or as I stated before, if you already have an established supply for an older child that you continued to nurse throughout your pregnancy...since this is your first I'm 120% sure you're just having normal colostrum leakage. Don't apologize for asking questions...you can't know if you don't ask!
