When did milk come in for 2+ moms?

rylee1 · August 2011

My son was born monday morning and I thought my milk would've been in by now. With my first one it came in on day 3. I have a little milk when nursing but my breasts are definitely not engored and/or full. How long for 2+ moms did it take for your milk to come in??? TIA!

You might not get engorged at all - that doesn't mean your milk isn't in. Count wet diapers.

I think mine came in around day 3 or 4, but it wasn't that dramatic about showing up.

Mine came in on day 3. I hope yours comes in soon!

Before the end of day 2 I had some milk and the full on engorgement came by day 4.

2-3 days is when mine came in.

Babies can live on just a few ounces/day in that first week, so don't stress about when it comes in because it will. Your colostrum will keep him satisfied in the meantime.

My milk came in with my DD 4 days after she was born. It came in 2 days after i had my DS was born. I was surprised @ how fast it came in with my DS and i think the LC was too.
