I had TONS of colostrum from very early on (like 17 weeks?), and my milk didn't come in until day 3 or 4. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-835000 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 08:34:03 +0000 Tidybee 835000@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I could get colostrum out if I tried pre-delivery and then I had a ton of it in the hospital right after she was born. But my milk didn't come in for 5-6 days because she wasn't latching or sucking properly. It only came in once I started using a pump. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834946 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 08:21:03 +0000 sorrycharlie 834946@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a ton of leakage - I needed bra pads from 21 weeks on! Lol. I had her Thursday evening, My milk came in Sunday morning. I've also had an oversupply. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834908 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 08:07:50 +0000 looch 834908@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a lot of colostrum, but 2 weeks post partum, nothing really had ever come in. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834901 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 08:05:22 +0000 Foodnerd81 834901@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was wondering the same thing! Sounds like there isn't much correlation but that doesn't make sense to me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834887 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 08:01:49 +0000 Anagram 834887@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ahhh...good to know. We were all saying, well...it sucks to have so much leakage already, but hopefully it means you'll at least have your milk come in immediately!</p> <p>But I see that might not be the case... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834878 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 07:59:59 +0000 MamaMoose 834878@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Anagram: I didn't even have a tiny drop before birth and yet my milk was completely in before I even checked out of the hospital. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834871 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 07:58:46 +0000 heffalump 834871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a ton of colustrum and my milk didn't come in for a long, long, time. My LO was also born in July :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/did-anyone-have-a-lot-of-colustrum-before-birth-but-still-have-a-lot-wait-before-your-milk-came-in#post-834784 Thu, 06 Jun 2013 07:31:46 +0000 Anagram 834784@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm part of a Facebook group of lovely ladies all due in July, and a couple of them already have their colustrum leaking in a major way---like, squirting or fully wetting their shirts. Some of us have had just a tiny sign of leakage, like once....and other of us haven't had any leakage at all.</p> <p>Do you think there's a correlation between early/heavy leakage and milk coming in sooner after baby arrives? </p>
