No colostrum or milk at all

Hi mummies, I just gave birth yest, i tried to bf my son but nothing come out. I even try to massage and squeeze, nothing. The nurse told me it is normal for no milk for 2 days. But i feel bad as baby wants to latch, and when latching, it can took more than 30 mins, when i let it go, baby cried as he want to latch somemore. Till i had to ask the nurse to gv him FM to make him full.. Any tips? Tia!

Happened the same as me . I kept on latching my son during my stay in the hospital and eventually the more you latch , the faster your body produce milk in later part .

Hi mummy congrats! I ever latch my baby for 1.5 hour on the days I'm in hospital. Latching stumilate the supply to kick in its tiring but worth it. Keep latching!

Just keep on latching, massage and pump ... drink more red dates water as well. Must be hydrated and rest well to have milk ...
