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!

Congrats to u.. I have same exp... during hospital stay I have squeeze until my breast sore also nothing come out, I tot I have no milk.. my son born premature 32wk, it hard to latch and his PD keep asking me whether I have milk for him during my stayđŸ˜«. Back home, I keep pumping 1st day 1-2 drip, 2nd day I can pump to match his intake.. my advise is don't feel guilty of having your baby to take FM.. my preemie took fm for the first few day.. it's nothing wrong with it.. now he is a healthy 10kg baby at 7month.. Jia youđŸ’ȘđŸ».. and keep pumping u will see hardworking pay off..
