Lactating?

Question

I'm 38 weeks and still haven't leaked any milk. If I (TMI) squeeze my nipples hard enough barely anything even comes out. Is this normal?

Answer

Your milk will not come in until 2 or 3 days after you give birth. Before that your body produces colostrum, which is sort of a clear-ish liquid, and only in small amounts. It is incredibly nutrient-dense, so it doesn't take a whole lot of it for your newborn's tiny stomach to be full.

Answer

Thanks ladies! I was sorta worried it would affect breast feeding so I'm glad to hear it won't. Thank you!

Answer

Same here I got my milk after I gave birth.

Answer

Yes, I didn't leak at all until I gave birth. Then BOOM I had a waaaaayyyy over supply. You're body will know what todo. Don't worry about it 😊 your milk will come in!
