dd was born 7 days ago via EMCS but my milk hasn't come in yet - at least, I've not had the typical engorgement iyswim - no pain, no full/heavy boobs, no boulders in my holders - though she's dirtying enough nappies that she seems to be getting what she needs from me at the moment.
I'm getting increasingly worried that it's just not going to come at all. I've bought a manual pump but there was nothing to pump out after her last feed bar a few drops which didn't even make it down into the bottle (I only pumped 2-3 minutes each side, as I understand excessive pumping isn't recommended this early on).
Is there anything else I can do? At the moment I'd really appreciate some reassuring stories, too - I desperately want to bf but it's starting to look like nothing's doing :(
