Does colostrum for toddlers make them obese later in life if you chose to tandem nurse?

Question

A friend told me this and I’m not sure I believe it.

Answer

Colostrum is the first milk your baby will receive from your breast, that’s what’s packed full of antibodies, vitamins and vital things your baby needs.... that has nothing to do with if your baby will be overweight or not.

Answer

Your colostrum only lasts a few days, and you produce very little of it. If your toddler consumes some it Will have no affect on his weight later in life.

Answer

Breastfeed your baby and babies NEED to gain weight. Don't worry about their weight when they are still so little.

Answer

Colostrum only lasts the first few days after delivery, usually day 3-5 your milk transitions to mature milk. I’ve noticed if you breastfeed throughout pregnancy, the milk is less thick than someone who isn’t but it definitely contains all the nutrients and antibodies as regular colostrum
