I'm new. My LO and I left the hospital late last night and have been spending the day settling in. I am starting to get my milk but only on one side? is this normal? Also, I have some serious nausea, is this normal?
Welcome and congratulations on your new little one!
I can't answer your first question, as my milk came in on both sides at the same time but I can tell you that the nausea is normal when your milk comes in. I didn't have an appetite for like 2 weeks once it came in and felt sick to my stomach for a while. It sucks, but it's totally normal!
Our TTC Journey
TTC #1: May 2011 BFP: 10/27/2011 | EDD: 6/30/12 DS born 6/28/12 via C/S
TTC #2: September 2018 Me: 36 | DH: 39 Mirena removed 9/13/2018 after 6 years BFP 11/11/2018 | MC @ 5.5 weeks on Thanksgiving July 2019 - Diagnosed with Secondary Unexplained IF August 2019 - 2.5 mg of Letrozole = Never Ovulated so Trigger and IUI were cancelled 9/30/2019 - IUI #1 (5 mg of Letrozole + Trigger) = BFP but Betas showed CP @ 4 weeks 10/28/2019 - IUI #2 (7.5mg of Letrozole + Trigger) = BFN 11/25/2019 - IUI #3 (7.5mg of Letrozole, Trigger + Crinone after IUI) = BFN 12/24/2019 - IUI #4 (7.5mg of Letrozole + Crinone after IUI) = BFN 1/24/2020 - IUI #5 (50mg of Clomid + Trigger + Crinone after IUI) = BFN and an Ovarian Cyst 3/2/2020 - Taking a break to reset/NTNP 11/1/2020 - At peace with where things are in life and are no long actively TTC. Whatever happens will happen and it will all be okay.
Mine came in on one side and then the other side the next morning. It's totally normal to feel nauseous when it comes in and when you BF (because of the surge of hormones). It does go away though.
(Also, for future notice, when you milk lets down - not something you'll feel at this point - it's normal for you to feel emotional, or feel a prickly sensation)
