BreastMilk
37 weeks tomorrow & I have breast milk already woot woot :) im just so excitied to start my journey breastfeeding since with my 5 year old I didnt get a chance to!!! #ANY other ftm or moms period breastfeeding?! #22MOREDAYS until i meet my pericous babygirl.
I breastfed for my first two kids for a full year, with no formula at all. It was a pain pumping at work, but I'm glad I stuck with it. Hoping I can do the same for this baby. I'm getting minor leakage already, which I guess is a good sign.
Wow congratulations! I hope I get mine that early. I'm 32wks 5d with my 3rd child and I never get mine until hours after I deliver.
I loved the closeness that breastfeeding gave my daughter and I. I made one rookie mistake...initially I wasn't saving the excess colostrum didnt realize what a great immune booster it was thought it was too watery...This time I am ready...oh and getting a hospital grade pump as I have to return to work. Last time pump was crappy and dried up too soon. Anywhoo best of luck! Great decision enjoy!!!
I'm planning on breastfeeding, and my midwife is a lactation expert, so she's going to make sure I can do it successfully. There are so many benefits from it that I think if a person has the option to do it, they definitely should!
I am a ftm as well and I plan on bf. I am 32+6 and have been leaking colostrum for as long as I can remember being pregnant. It kinda freaked me out at first but my Dr said it was ok and you will make plenty for baby and that it was a good sign that I would be able to bf when little man gets here. Good luck mommas.
Wow and im gald to get some positive feedback on it.. thank you so much & Im happy you did it! Now i feel encouraged to do the same good luck to you also
So glad to see someone thats going to give bfing a shot! I did with my son and was determined to go to a yr even with all the pain and difficulties and I did it wouldn't change it for the world! Good luck
