I am about 20 weeks pregnant and am trying to decide to breastfeed or not. But my problem is I don't know for sure if I will be able to.  I had a baby in June '98 at 26 weeks that died.  The doctors warned me that my milk would come in and to be expecting it. But it never came in. My breasts never even got sore. My doctor didn't seem very concerned about it though.  Is this normal?  Also my breasts were very sore for the first few months last time, but this time they haven't even tingled.  I thought everybody's breasts were sore at first.
I delivered at 39 wks, and never even leaked.  My breast began to tingle
after my child nursed for about 4 days-that is when the milk came in.
It turned out to be the most enjoyable experience with my child-after you
work out all the kinks!!
