How much colustrum did you bring to the hospital?
I have never been on board with breastfeeding. I’m just an odd pickle when it comes to my nipples, very sensitive and I know for a fact it’s not for me. I’ve been using the Medela hand pump and collecting colustrum to bring to the hospital so that our baby still gets my nutrients as soon as she needs it. I’ve already confirmed with our hospital that they do in fact provide storage for colustrum that patients bring in. My question is, for someone who strictly wants to combo feed such as myself (breast milk & formula if need be), how much colustrum should I bring to the hospital? How much did you bring and what worked for you?
I’m ok with supplementing with formula if needed as well. Did anyone bring in their own formula?
