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!

Hi dear. What you’re seeing is very normal. But when baby sucks for that half an hour, actually some colostrum is coming out. So don’t worry:) top up with FM for now and keep latching on demand. The supply will come soon, usually 3rd/4th day if you keep latching:)
