Colostrum Harvesting

Keep going, it can take a while to see any, it’s a bit disheartening doing it and not getting any but something should appear! It can take up to a week

You might not get any it’s normal, but it’s not an indication of your supply please don’t worry 💗

I’m 38 weeks too and haven’t seen any colostrum either. I’ve had dry nipples though/almost like dry milk? But nothing liquid

Please don't worry, with my first I got so upset because it took a while and I didn't get loads, but I ended up ebf for 14 months :)

Same here, it's very disheartening but I'm going to keep trying

I haven’t got any either and 38 weeks tomorrow! I fed my little girl for 2 1/2 years and only stopped a year ago, I thought I’d have some but nothing. It doesn’t mean anything about your supply dw xx

I’ve been getting tiny little beads but nothing enough to collect. Really frustrating 🙈

I am 38 weeks tomorrow and I've been trying for a week and a half and it has been a struggle. I haven't been able to get 0.1ml most days... Felt really upset this weekend about it - I've watched different videos, tried doing massages and having a bath/shower beforehand. Getting any little beads into the syringe has also been frustrating! My partner has been trying to help and reassure me, but it's a lot more challenging than I thought it would be. 😥

Thanks everyone, I’m still not even getting any beads but it’s nice to know that I’m not the only one in this situation
