FTM concerned about breastfeeding help

Don't worry i don't remember my breast getting larger prior to my first.  However after i had her say bout day 3 i woke up during th night soaked....and well i had a big set of milk jugs after that.   I was a C and bought I think G nursing bras. This round i have noticed a big difference went from C cup to a DD already and i'm only 18wks with 3rd kiddo.  I was like Holy Crap!!!  I hate to see them after the milk gets here........lol.

lol well hope mine fill up a lil cause i really wanna breast feed well see ill pray lol

Oh the tube sock roll em up boobs!! Haha I lost alot of boob weight too. With my first one my milk came in an I went from a c/d to a g/h. My hubby called me dolly. Lol! I breastfed her for a year. Then my secon one I've stayed in a large bravado nursing bra do about a d/dd. I never got engorged when my milk came in this time. It had been just under a year from the time I stopped nursin the first till the second came. It's a good idea to get lansioh cream and gel pads for soreness, a couple or 5-6 good nursing bras( I love bravado silk seamless), nursing pads ( I love lansioh brand), a nursing sleep bra or gown, and a manual pump. I have successfully breastfed 2 babies so far with no issues. It takes time and some getting use to. Good Luck and take a WIC or hospital breastfeedig class.

lolol im a lower side c hope i dont to big lol i wont know what to do with my self lol ill deff lool into those thanks for the advice. wallmart is my best friend. i am on wic and signed uo just waiting to take class.

Definitly wait until about 2-3 after you milk comes in to buy your nursing bras and, if possible, go to the store while they're pretty full (rather than right after a feeding) so you can get the most comfortable fit. until then, just get a couple of stretchy nursing tank tops and make those work for a bit.

that sounds like a good idea ill deff do that thank you

I'm only a B cup because of the skin that is left behind from my weight loss. And, that's a TINY B cup. My cup size didn't increase until I deliverred, they got a bit heavier, but still stayed in a B cup until about a week post-delivery. THEN, they got up to a solid Big C/Small D cup. I had zero issues breastfeeding or having enough milk for her. I had a csection as well, and my boobs started leaking around the 36th week, just colostrum, and Tatum immediately latched after delivery. The csection nor my tiny boobs negatively impacted breastfeeding.

OH wow thank you for sharing this makes me feel better i thought i wouldnt be able to give jayauna any milk lol
