So, it is 48 hours since my baby arrived and it really appears my milk has come in. My breasts have shot up in size and feel solid and heavy. This started while he was on a marathon two-hour feed on one side. After burping him, he spat up some yellowish sick (colostrum ?) and then had insisted on starting to feed on the other side.
Nothing I've read has suggested milk comes in before day 3 and often longer. I assume I don't need to be worried that he is presumably taking relatively huge feeds now at just 2 days old? I'm mostly delighted as he is high risk for jaundice so the more he takes the better but I don't want to over feed him or make him sick. Any thoughts?
