  • Im 32 weeks w child # 2 and both pregnancies I had alot of milk also.. But if it concerns u bring it up next time u r at the docs... My doc said not to express the milk cause it will just cause more but I tend to ignore that since it hurts super bad when I dont... Hope thst hekped a little. I know I felt weird I was the only one lactating while being pregnant in my family but I guess we r just ahead of the rest ;) lol
  • Omg I wish I was lactating now so I could pump it n freeze for the baby.I would feel so prepared.lol.im jealous.im preg wit 5th n are going to breastfeed again but I might get a c section and/or get my tubes tied so im afraid of the pain of that n breastfeeding.I've nvr had a c section.I've had my gallbladder taken out n that was horrible so I can only imagine the pain ill b in wit a c section n breastfeeding.:(
  • @Lucky7 have u tried squeezing? I tried breast feeding after my c-section but couldn't, I was in to much pain to concrete. I'm having another c-section and I'm determined to breast feed.. I know I'll be able to..

    @Faithywp thank u! I thought I was the only one.. my sister could breast feed her kids because she never lactated, & the same with my mom... but soon after I gave birth to my son my breasts were like water hoes!

  • Everything in your post including week n day explains me. Lol. But a little milk only comes out of my right breast! Except this is my first pregnancy.
