Just curious....

Have any mother's put there who decided to breast feed ever used the breast pump before the baby got here. For example if you pumped milk out your breasts and froze it til the baby came into world? Just curious. Sitting here putting my breast pump together.

I wouldn't do it.  Can trigger contractions and cause early labor. Ur body isn't use to that much stimulation. Plus you're supply isn't in yet. U may only get a few drops. U got lots of time to pump.  Once ur milk comes in, Ull be engorged and can feed baby then pump rest out. I'm on nmbr 4 and nursing my 1 y.o.

Milk don't come in til after the baby the first thing is called calusturum *sorry for spelling* it's the first thing the baby will drink mine is alk ready started to kinda come out with I squeeze my Boobs ... it's a thick whitish color it gives the baby the amuinities and make his/her amune system strong.

I don't think your milk will flow until after the baby is born
