Avatar f tn well i can breastfeed with both breasts, but i do find that my left breast produces slightly more. i wouldnt worry about it tho. it might be that way with breasts.
Avatar f tn The more you breastfeed, the more milk your baby needs, therefore, your breast produces more milk for the baby. So yes, I would suppose they would get bigger.
10882379 tn?1435465934 I am a FTM, 30w4d, and I am getting a little worried because I have not noticed any breast milk yet. I am grateful that I am not leaking or anything, but at the same time I am wondering if this is normal? If you already have children, about when did you start producing milk? Or does anyone have a ballpark idea? I am planning on breastfeeding my son and I just want to make sure that I am on track to do so. Thanks!
Avatar f tn Then once baby is born, they both leak, however my left produces more milk. That may just be your good side leaking ;) I wouldnt worry too much about it until your baby is born and your milk starts producing so youll have a better idea of what your dealing with.
Avatar f tn Awesome thanks for the tips.
Avatar f tn I never had weight lose from breastfeeding!! I was just as hungry after having the baby as I was pregnant!! I didn't lose anything except hospital weight until we stopped nursing with my first two babies..
Avatar f tn im producing so much milk on my left and my right has 2oz. Only i feed on the left one feeding nd the right next feeding sorry if confusing need answers thankyou.
Avatar n tn t made so she had to make it get the shape to how it suppose to be well so I been producing a lot of milk and I been giving her both breast and out of nowhere I feel my right breast getting more harder with more milk than my left I barely feel my baby gets enough when she is on my left and my left hurts more than my right my left doesn't really get hard with milk anymore and my right does ..is this normal??
9171934 tn?1405180032 I just got done with my last breast feeding class the other day and it's completely normal for colostrum to still be producing for the first week, then milk will be coming in. With colostrum, it's still thin and will still make the baby hungry. Adter your milk supply comes in, less feedings because there is more calories to make the baby full longer. You're body actually produces more calories at night if breast feeding.
Avatar n tn My baby will turn 1 year old in two weeks. I'm not sure if I should continue with breast milk or should I give her whole milk. Some mom told me that breast milk isn't that effective in this stage because the nutrient is less in the breast milk so my baby will not get all the good stuff as she used to because the milk is not the same. Is it true?
2109562 tn?1347253848 You take about 3 a day n like the above post still feed baby every 2hrs from breast the more u do the more milk will come at night b sure to breastfeeding night feeding increases supply and if u formula do an ounce less then u normally would.
Avatar f tn You should get your milk right away.. you have to let baby try that produces more milk . With my first she didn't latch on I produced plenty but had to pump and bottle feed her my breast milk.. With second my water ruptured at 26 weeks I had her at 30 and I immediately started pumping.. the first few times you get very little (colostrum) but just keep on it.. the nurses could not believe how much breastmilk I brought in in just a 2 or 3 days..
2207301 tn?1340990867 How long does our take for your breast milk to dry up? I've been super busy and stressed so ive started supplementing when I'm busy and i just tried to pump and some came out but not a full feeding. I can't just pump allot and get my milk back right? Cause i still have some.
Avatar f tn Colostrum is basically the beginning of your milk production. You breasts may start to fill with it, or become more tender than usual. If it is extremely heavy, you may want to ask your doctor just for peace of mind. You can also buy nursing pads to attach to your bra, and they will absorb anything that comes out.
Avatar n tn I am 12 weeks pregnant today! when will I start producing milk? Also, I am afraid that I won't be able to produce enough for my child. How common is that?
Avatar f tn Milk shouldn't actually come in until after you have the baby. Your body produces colostrum before birth or at birth until your milk comes in. Some women have more colostrum than others. The pains are just your body getting ready.
Avatar n tn t know about vitamins but my on told me with my first to drink alot of milk but not to worry to much about it because my body will know when its time to make the milk and he was...
Avatar f tn Invest in a good breast pump. A couple of weeks before you start to go back to work, start pumping 3 Times a day & save the milk in freezer bags in your freezer. That Should give u a good start up supply. The more u feed/ pump, the more milk your body produces. When u get home, don't use bottles make sure you breast feed. You can do it, irs kinda vigorous but def possible.
Avatar f tn I'v noticed for yr.s that my right breast would sometimes have a crusty residue. About a yr. ago it would sometimes leak a clear yellowish, almost oily liquid, if I pressed on it. Within the past 3 months this liquid has turned dark, nearly brown. I'm in no pain. Should I be worried? We just lost our health insurance, and hate to run up another bill if this is fairly normal.
Avatar f tn Not to worry! Your body produces colostrum for baby before your milk comes in! You can start breast feeding the day your baby is born! google colostrum and all your questions about it will be answered!
Avatar n tn Breast milk comes in 2-5,on average after birth. Until your milk actually comes in your body produces colostrum which is what baby drinks until milk comes in. It is all they need very nutritious and for the size of their belly which is the size of a small marble that is all they need while your milk is coming in. Colostrum is also very high in antibodies etc :-) the worst thing you can do first thing off breastfeeding is give formula!
Avatar f tn They'll usually detach from the nipple or fall asleep if their full. Your breast produces the right amount of milk for your baby don't worry.
1665009 tn?1303175598 Its been a little over a month since I had my first daughter. After 4-5 days of having her she rejected feeding from my breasts and 6-8 days she rejected my milk completely. I just recently found out that the reason why is that she is lactose intolerant. Well I'm still producing milk and I am now completely engorged. I have tried the "No More Milk"tea from Earth Mama <3 Angel Baby, I've done the cabbage trick, warm showers, tight bras, everything.
Avatar f tn My first son was born 12 years ago and I never produced any milk. I want to breast feed for new baby that is coming. I am 32 weeks. Does anyone have ideas how to boost milk supply? We have bought a host grade pump this time.
Avatar f tn So I assumed my left breast was just producing more milk causing it to be more engorged than my right. But upon breastfeeding I found out that my right is actually producing more. Is it normal for one to be firmer and produce less?
Avatar f tn Just dont over pump, the more u do the more milk ur body will make and more often. Only pump the same times u would feed the baby. I only pumped with my second, breastfed and pumped my first and third and plan on doing the same with this one. Good luck!
