'If you bd while pg you will not produce colostrum after the birth'. This is definitely wrong, isn't it?

[berolina]

Said to me by doctor at the hospital where I will be giving birth. She wanted to convince me to wean ds before the birth. I'm 28+1 and he's showing no signs of self-weaning, in fact just the opposite, and I don't intend to wean him. But according to this doctor dc2 will not get milk appropriate to his stage, but rather the 'mature' milk ds has been getting, because I will not produce any colostrum.

Bolleaux, surely?

berolina, so pleased to read about your placenta.

Don't listen to the stupid doctor. It's absolutely disgusting how little German health professionals know about b/feeding (some of them). When ds was in hospital with bronchiolitis, fully b/fed, the nurse tried to convince me he had diarrhoeae (sp?) - when what she was looking at was the normal poo of a full b/fed baby...

do you know the site www.rund-ums-baby.de ? There's a lovely, lovely b/feeding counsellor on there who gives great advice, also searchable for past answers.
