When did your colostrum come in? During pregnancy? Or at birth?

Ren had to giggle at your belly button cheese.

My colostrum came in at birth.

ETA I cant believe your 23 weeks already woo hoo.

Nothing with Chelsea.....with Jasmine i had it all through the pregnancy....and this time up until about 18 weeks...now i cant even squeeze a drop out..

.....but DH can suck a hell of alot of milk out LOL

I've had it from about 15wks this pregnancy and i got some leaking with DS in the last few weeks. I can actually get a fair bit out...more out of the left side though!
Hey Ren don't just squeeze your nipple, go a little further back up to where it would be stored IYKWIM.
Another probably silly question, does this actually condition our boobies for the real deal or are wierdos for doing this??

I had nothing till after birth with dd

BUT I have been able to get something fluid out from about 13 weeks this time. It's not as thick and "dark" as my colostrum was with dd, but that made sence to me, because it does not need to be used yet, kwim??

OMG .. can't believe you are looking forward to leaking It's embarressing when you don't notice, but THE WHOLE WORLD sees it. I was walking from the hossie after a visit (it was a feed) to dd and I was noticing ppl looking strange at me, but not at my eyes. I was thinking bugger them, when we got to the car and DH LOOKED at me ... he pointed out that my t-shirt were drenched around my boobs I did not even feel the let-down!! I got out at home with two dry milk circles on my boobies!! VERY obvious
