3rd pregnancy but 1st time trying colostrum harvesting, got 0.6ml today (38+5) 🥳 how do you get these to the hospital? Are you allowed to freeze it? Do you label them somehow?!

Question

Answer

My hospital doesn’t “allow” it if you ask, so I didn’t (ask). I brought frozen in a cooler and made sure I wasn’t feeding her when staff was in the room. If your hospital is supportive they may be able to help store it.

Answer

Yes, you freeze them. From what someone else had commented on here once you’re ready to deliver you take them in a cooler to the hospital. The person who commented also said to not tell your doctor, but I’m not sure why lol.

Answer

May i ask why? Are you planning to breastfeed? Or what is the difference from expressing it or just feeding it at the hospital? I have breastfed my 3 kids and planning to breastfeed this one coming but is there a reason to take it out and feed it? And i dont mean this in a rude day im just curious if im missing something
