DS2 - day 3. That being said, I never BF-ed, so I don't know if it would have come earlier or whatever had I tried. daniellemybelle on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2395317 Mon, 21 Dec 2015 01:10:17 +0000 daniellemybelle 2395317@https://boards.hellobee.com/ It never really "came in" as in I got engorged. I had low supply the whole time. Baby #2 I will pump with a hospital grade pump from day 1 C-section or not. lovehoneybee on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2395228 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 20:51:02 +0000 lovehoneybee 2395228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Update: my milk came in about two and a half days after she was born, which was about the same time it came in with Evan.

I was happy it came in that fast given LO came at 37 weeks by emergency c-section after my placenta abrupted during an external cephalic version.

I had to pump in the hospital, due to baby's blood sugar issues, and got out 30 ml, which was impressive (I had no idea). I would say it was fully in (like encouraged and huge boobs) by day three.

DS was dropping weight and was right at the threshold for needing to supplement and my milk came in the next day finally. travelgirl1 on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394873 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 03:21:36 +0000 travelgirl1 2394873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Day five with #1, day four with #2. kitty on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394866 Sun, 20 Dec 2015 01:47:53 +0000 kitty 2394866@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I thought my milk was in but I first experienced that engorged feeling on day 5 when I woke up. I think my colostrum was just gradually thinning out.

I woke up engorged on one side and the next side followed a short while later. They do say with a c section it can take longer so I was expecting it might take longer than it did, but am glad it didn't. Mine dropped 8% body weight by the time we left the hospital. Apparently 10% is fairly normal before it starts picking up again. gingerbebe on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394539 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 11:06:43 +0000 gingerbebe 2394539@https://boards.hellobee.com/ A week!

I was shocked since I was only 37 weeks, failed induction and then c-section. But I was also pumping since DD couldn't latch so I don't know if that helped it come in faster. gracecat on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394501 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 09:40:55 +0000 gracecat 2394501@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 4-5 days autumnlove on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394500 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 09:39:53 +0000 autumnlove 2394500@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 9, 6 and 6 days. shellio on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394482 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 08:54:46 +0000 shellio 2394482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ 3-4 days. artsyfartsy on "When did your milk come in post c-section?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-milk-come-in-post-c-section#post-2394477 Sat, 19 Dec 2015 08:44:24 +0000 artsyfartsy 2394477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Exactly three days.
