Ladies
I am FTM and really need your help. I am really worrying now. It is our 5th day after delivery (we were bormn on March 2 9am). Yesterday I sterted feeling that my breasts enlrage really twice and that they became very dense and and a little bit hot. Baby gets on breasts pretty often (every 1-2 hour) for 15-30 minutes. I guiess my milk came but the baby can nopt completely eliminate it at each feeding. The breasts are really dense and very large. They are symmetrical in enlargment and in density. Please help. Is this normal for 4th day after delivery? What would I do to help myslef? I ordered electrical pump, but it will arrive within the next few days. I am going to the hospitl to breastfeeding center, maybe they can let me know if it is normal?? I am worrying mostly about this being normal or not |
Totally normal. Your milk has come in!
Congratulations! |
Thank you
Should that be always like this, or it should lasts only a few days? I mean I feel my breasts are soooo huuge and so heavy and dense (especially at the base of the breasts, closer to the chest), when baby sucks, it feels that the front end of the breasts (from the middle to the nipple) get a bit softer. Should it always feel like this until I stop ever breastfeeding? I mean is there a scertain peirod of time when I need to go to see doctor? I am really paranoid about getting something in the breasts. |
