I was told I'd wake up feeling like Pamela Anderson...but no suck luck. Is it like this for everyone? I never felt my milk "come in". I did have a little when I hand expressed though

Nope sadly I feel I have been sold a lie as my boobs are still a B cup (if I'm being generous). I also thought id wake up with double DDs one day and just know my milk had properly come in, but it was not meant to be 😂. I also only knew my milk had come in from hand expressing and seeing it switch from colostrum.

I have no issues with breastfeeding, baby is putting on weight well and I'm able to now express extra milk so I know there is plenty there! The only time my boobs feel slightly heavier is when she wakes to feed during the night but the rest of the time no difference! On the plus side I also don't leak milk so never had to use breast pads.
