I'm 33 weeks pregnant with my second child and had a breast reduction 10 years ago. I contracted a hospital infection after the surgery and so it ended up being revised 5 times.
I was told that I would be unable to breast feed following this and with my first child didn't try. I had an ELCS and after going home three days later, took off my bra to find it stained yellowish (hardly any, less than a 1p) and thought it would be too late / must be normal to leak a tiny bit and my baby had already been ff for three days so just continued.
I've just had a bath and noticed tiny hard white dots on my nipples... Is this normal? Is this something to do with milk coming in?
I'd really appreciate some advice, I feel a bit embarrassed to ask my midwife and maybe it's totally normal for this to happen but wouldn't result in being able to feed?
