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 congrats! Colostrum is very thick and difficult to come out so you may feel like there's nothing because you can't squeeze it out, but baby can suck it out more easily. When a lactation consultant visited me on the 3rd day she squeezed super hard until I wanted to cry and only then a few drops came out. So don't worry it's totally normal, keep on latching, see a lactation consultant if you can & all the best with your bf journey!
