@Mummalove by Diajadwani , I'm soon-to-be a first-time mom and I've noticed that I'm only producing a small amount of colostrum, which is the first milk that comes out of the breast. Is this normal? I'm curious about the typical range of colostrum production in first-time mothers and whether the quantity I'm experiencing falls within that range.
Is it normal to only have a small amount of colostrum, the first milk that comes out of the breast?Will I have enough milk for my baby? @Mummalove by Diajadwani
Hello @Mummalove by Diajadwani , my child is currently 3 years old, and during breastfeeding sessions, he tends to bite me, leaving many marks and causing considerable pain. I've noticed instances where I see blood above my nipple, which is concerning. I'm seeking advice on how to manage the pain and promote healing in this area. Could you please provide recommendations on what I can do to recover and ensure a healthier breastfeeding experience?
Being a new parent is an around-the-clock job, regardless of how you feed your baby. Breastfeeding is a learned skill, and just like anything you’re doing for the first time, it takes practice and patience to master. Breastfeeding is also a matter of supply and demand. In those first few weeks, breastfeed on demand (when your baby lets you know he or she is hungry) to establish a good milk supply that will keep your baby growing at a healthy pace. Why does breastfeeding seem so challenging? @Mummalove by Diajadwani
