I know everyone is different but ill be 28 weeks as of friday and I feel something is wrong since my boobs an nipples arent sore at all anymore like they were in beginning of pregnancyn but my main question is if they randomly start to leak which they can at any time.. would my breasts or nipples hurt prior to that?
Next question is how can someone prepare to make nipples stronger for breastfeeding? My sister said she scrubbed hers with a lufa during pregnancy to make them tougher.
As of a few days ago, my breasts are producing liquid (I wouldn't say that it's milk, but I wouldn't swear that it isn't either). I've also gone up more than a cup size already. It's not a lot as yet, but I wonder if this is normal or not. I also lactated for about a week and a half after a 9 week chemical abortion back in May of '08, so maybe I just start really early or something.
My milk never "came in" with my first born. I Tried breast feeding but never really got anything to come out. I would pump for 2 hours straight and only get a 1/2 ounce between the two nipples. I'm wondering, did anyone else have this happen, but go on to have a normal breastfeeding experience with their second? I would really like to, but if there is something wrong with me where I just can't, then I'd like to prepare for that too.
This drug raises prolactin levels and is used to induce lactation in women adopting babies who want to try to breastfeed those babies. My doctor also gave it to me when my milk supply was very low in the first few weeks.
6. Make sure you get plenty of rest. Ideally you rest when the baby's sleeping and skin-to-skin whenever possible.
7. Drink plenty of fluids.
You can also google relactation. There are some really good sites. One by a lady called kelly mum also great.
it feels very similar to when they are producing milk, nor had I found any lumps or masses upon SBE.
But then last month I had a burning sensation within my right nipple. Felt as though there was an open fire being held within the center opening of my nipple.
Now this month things are a bit different...my breasts were only there normal size for a week, before enlarging again.
Im 14weeks & I was wondering when does milk form in my breasts. My breasts feel larger and are always sore...
I stopped pumping over a week ago and I still have milk in my breasts. I didn't tell you guys that shortly after Logan was born my dr. was diagnosed with esophageal cancer and closed his office for atleast the summer. I have been left feeling very alone. I haven't even had my post partum checkup yet. Will have it on the 22nd at almost 12 weeks post partum. But anyway, I have called the nurse at the new dr.'s office, but she doesn't seem very informative to me.
I'm 35 weeks pregnant. Lately, my breasts feel as if they're filling up with milk even though they don't look fuller and nothing's leaking. Is it possible for me to be producing milk already? Does my body know what it's going through the second time around and that's why it's doing that? Or is the pain related to something else? Anyone experience that with their second pregnancy? Thank you for your replies.
But how can i increase my milk supply? Right now she on a mix of both breast and formula. My dr said to pump about an hour after feeding. Which i have been doing but i only pump out about 2 oz or less each time. my breasts only feel "full" about twice a day which is when i get the full 2 oz. i want to be able to get her on breast milk alone and start "stock piling" it.
I did the same to the other breast and it also happen. Since then ever time I squeeze my breasts or just my nipples, to be more precise, it happens and not just a tiny bit, quite a lot comes out if I squeeze as if its being sucked on.
As far as I know, I am not pregnant, but I could be. I have been having unprotected sex with someone (I know, this is terrible) but I have gotten off mostly long before he ejaculates. This is something I am very worried about.
C (friday) and now it is the wednesday after i got it and i noticed my breasts are leaking, milk, well its not exactally milk its more watery! i am guessing it is just the hormones changing, but i am not sure. this was my first pregnancy and im 19. I also want to know if you should somehow get rid of the milk becasue i heard that not breast feeding can cause breast cancer later in life.???
I am already producing the yellow stuff, I can see it every now and then, and it comes out if I put pressure on my breasts, because I masage them every so often.. they hurt like heck! Is masaging bad?
So, my dumb question is ... Is it true that you do not produce breast milk until after the baby is born? And. Will haveing a C-Section make the milk production slower than having the baby vaginally. Does having vaginal birth signal the milk to produce.
My hubby and I were talking about breastfeeding the other day and I said I didn't feel like I was going to produce much milk this time bc I haven't started leaking colostrum yet (I'm almost 33wks) and breasts are really soft. My first pregnancy i started leaking really early on and produced a ton of milk. My little girl was a perfect latcher from the start but I was really young and uncomfortable with the process and had no women to talk to about it so I quit after three days.
yes... :-) i wanna adopt a child.. but i dont like to marry & have sex... thanks..
