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!

Be patient, milk will eventually come. Don't give up and continue to stimulate to encourage milk production. My milk only came in on day 6. If I'd waited for my milk to come in and not fed formula, my baby would literally be dead. Most importantly, don't feel guilty for giving baby formula! Fed is best!
