Avatar f tn My son was in the nicu and I breast fed. The neonatologist suggested to bottle feed my breast milk to watch how many ounces he drank. If he stayed consistent, we were told we could switch to the boob.

Avatar f tn Idk mines look like skim milk ... watery lookin ....
Avatar f tn Babies spit up with breast milk but they do with formula as well. My oldest son had some difficulty breast feeding initially and we supplemented with formula so I was doing both breast feeding and bottle feeding. he would spit up the bottle as much if not more than breast milk. My pediatrician told me that spit up always looks like a lot because as a liquid, it spreads out. So, not to be too concerned about quantity of spit up.
Avatar f tn No baby in uterus but my breast are leaking breast milk. This is so terrible to have this happen and have to baby to look forward to, to breast feed. I am back so sad now:( When will the breast milk stop producing?
Avatar n tn Ditto the breast milk! Totally works! Some babies get conjunctivitis ALL the time! The doc might prescribe eye drops but sometimes it does clear up on its own!
Avatar f tn ll see if I get my milk early this time, I know some women even get their milk early with their first pregnancy! But I think it's perfectly normal.
Avatar f tn Have you given birth yet? If not it will be kind of clear, but cloudy and sticky. That's colostrum not breast milk yet. Milk won't flow till after you have baby and you want to save as much colostrum as you can because its super healthy for your new born.
915119 tn?1341948989 My daughter was 8lbs. at her last check up which was last week. She is drinking about 3-4 oz. every 3-4 hours. Sometimes her spit up is watery with milk pieces (looks like tiny chunks). I don't know if that's normal.
Avatar f tn At first it was yellowish . But now it's like watery green.
Avatar f tn I felt something watery on my left breast so I touched my right breast same thing I freaked out I thought oh crap maybe it's blood I scratched way to hard. I got up super quickly and clear liquid was coming out both breast is it milk? And is it to early in my pregnancy to start having milk? This is my first pregnancy so I'm just checking if it's normal..
Avatar f tn Is it okay for baby to drink the clearish breast milk from the breast?
Avatar f tn Usually, a discharge that is clear, milky, yellow, or green, and is noted from both nipples, is not associated with breast cancer. Bloody or watery nipple discharge, especially if limited to one side and/or a single breast duct, is considered abnormal; however, only around 10% of abnormal discharges are found to be cancerous.
Avatar f tn I have been trying to pump first, then feed because of the whole "hind milk" thing. When pumping, the first milk the comes out is watery, then it gets thicker. My almost 4 week old falls asleep while nursing, so if I don't get all the watery milk out first she doesn't get to the hind milk/thicker milk so she wakes up sooner. I haven't gotten to the point where I store milk, if I make 2 bottles, she usually takes them the same day. We are still figuring this thing out.
Avatar f tn Fennel essential oil around the breast will increase milk production. Fenugreek, mother's milk tea, brewers yeast, lactation cookies, maxi milk, plenty of water and frequent nursing or pumping.
Avatar f tn He also said for breast feeding moms to drip breast milk in the eye. I thought I would give it a try before bed, and by morning the eye goop didn't come back and it was all better. Boob milk is magic!

Avatar f tn The reason being is that you have different types of milk, foremilk, which is like a nutrient rich watery milk and hindmilk, which is the calorie rich fatty milk which will give lo satatity. If you switch in between during feedings it can cause a fussy baby and not provide enough calories to help lo gain weight. Your milk also is going to vary in taste and quantity due to your fluid and food intake. Make sure to chug water! Also eat as healthy as possible as lo will eat what you're eating.
Avatar n tn My son has had diarrhea for almost 2 weeks now, and I have taken him to the doctor twice. They say give him plenty of fluids and let it run its coarse. His stool went from watery to stringy and bright green, now it is bright green mixed with dark brown (looks like coffee grounds) and is still stringy. He vomited 3 times today and wont eat, and barely drinks. I am running out of things to think of. I don't know what else to do. It is 5:42pm here and I have changed him 6 times today already.
Avatar m tn Well, whatever is going on, producing breast milk is not an early-pregnancy symptom, though the other symptoms you mention certainly can come from increased prolactin levels that also produce breast milk. Women often go through their whole pregnancy and their milk doesn't come in until the baby is born.
1985448 tn?1339821862 Its normal, this is my third pregnancy, with my first it was the white milky color with my second it was yellow also. I haven't experienced it yet with this one. As far as it happening more when you get out of the shower its because the warm water relaxes your milk glands making it easier to flow. After giving birth if you choose to breastfeed and find it difficult or your glands get swollen, take a warm shower and let the water run on your cheat for a few minutes or warm up a towel in the.
Avatar f tn A lot of times breasts secrete some fluids that may even look milky, and that's normal. If it concerns you, you may want to express and see how the fluid looks. Also go to a gynecologist to get more information.
1339680 tn?1276744901 If you are feeding her fresh cows milk, you can change it to formula milk. If she is still having the problem then may be she is not digesting the milk, and she may be lactose intolerant. Milk contains a sugar called lactose, which cannot be digested by some individuals. This sugar stays in the intestines and bacteria acts on it, producing gases. The unabsorbed sugar brings more water into the intestines, causing diarrhoea. It is very common in Asians.
Avatar f tn I agree its highly unlikely that its your milk as your milk cant go off, I'm wondering if it maybe his cord and when your feeding you may be getting little wifs of it, sometimes they can get a little smelly, they dont necessarily have an infection but they can smell abit off
