  • You don't pump before birth because it can bring on contractions or something like that
  • Ur breast milk will b yellow right after birth b4 the milk actually comes in.
  • lol thanks ladies:) haha men!
  • Lol oh my.. no babe its not true! Is he thinking pumping before helps with jaundice? I can't remember what its called but its not even actual milk that leaks and what not. The actual milk comes after birth. You could do research to confirm that since I'm having a blonde moment & stink with explaining this lol you can also research jaundice, so he knows pumping can't prevent it lol hope I helped love!
  • No for sure don't pump before baby gets her. Your baby needs that yellow stuff. The a couple days after you will start to get your milk. And I stgoll wouldn't pump till atleast 3 weeks
  • It's called cholostrum or however you spell it and its your first liquid stuff after the baby is born before your actual milk produces and the hospital usually makes you breast feed there cuz the cholostrum reduces sickness and builds immune system and stuff but if you try to pump before the baby is born chances are your just gonna hurt your books cuz nothing will probably come out lol hope this helps :) good luck and tell Hubby to hush he is silly
