Colostrum and bottle feeding?

Question

Iv turned 37 weeks this week and my midwife said I can start harvesting now. 
My question is... what’s the point if I’m bottle feeding?
What can I do with it? 
What will I do with it? 
How will it help the baby? 
I don’t fully understand why I’m harvesting it and what the hell its used for when he’s born! 🙉

Answer

Colostrum is liquid gold, it's everything baby needs for the first few days.
It's packed full of antibodies and other goodness.
 
Babies only have very tiny stomachs when born so a little goes a long way, once harvested colostrum is usually spoon or syringe feed and is especially good if you and baby have a hard birth and baby needs a boost.

Answer

I got told that if I’m bottle feeding to leave my boobs alone once my milk starts to come in

Answer

I personally wouldn't if you know you're going to be bottle feeding. Up to you if you feel you want to feed your baby some colostrum as well.
It's hiiiighly unlikely to bring on labour... We'd all be using it to try and get baby out if it worked!!!

Answer

I dont see the point and wont that induce labour?
