DD is now 6 days old and has been b/f well since birth. She attaches correctly (most of the time, I correct her when she's not right) and settles well after most feeds.
The question I've now been getting incessantly is "Has your milk come in yet??"
Does everyone get that "VOOOM" feeling with the rock hard breasts etc when the milk comes in??? Is it always that noticable?
Could my milk have come in without me noticing any massive difference? My breasts feel fuller, heavier and somewhat firmer but nowhere near what I was expecting.
DD is doing the standard quick suck suck suck, then long suck, suck, suck. Recently (last night) I noticed when she detaches herself she had white, milky fluid stuff running down her face (milk?), and white milky stuff coming out of my nipple. It is definitely different to the colostrum that I saw in the first few days.
Is that my milk?
DD is also having lots of wet nappies, so she's getting something!
