Hello. I am due an elc C Section next week. I have a few issues around breastfeeding and not 100% I will do it. However I obviously want what is best for baby, and so plan to harvest some colostrum so if I don’t manage to breastfeed (I will try) then she can have some colostrum before each formula feed for at least a few days. Can anyone talk me through how to do it please, and joe to store it etc etc. I am clueless! I understand the theory, express I to syringe. But how, and what kind of syringe, and how do a sterilise them, and how to a store it, and take it to hospital etc?
Many thanks
