How soon did your milk supply come in?

in C-sections
Some ppl say it takes longer for the supply to come in after a c section. It's been since Monday and still no milk. I have to supplement, but I have also been pumping.

Re: How soon did your milk supply come in?
DS born via unplanned C-section at 40w6d
2 days. I had been leaking for 2 or 3 months before having DS and I didn't start pumping until the milk actually came in. Doctor said I would have to supplement, but we didn't have to.
I think the whole "some say..." with everyone is different. No 2 people are the same, so I just say, take everything you hear with a grain of salt. If it takes you a week to have your milk come in and the doc says its normal, so be it.
same here w/ my DS

Your body will produce colostrum for the first few days, which is all baby needs. If you plan on breast feeding, wait for your milk to come in.
I am 8 days and have milk but no let down
Currently we are doing SNS and I am pumping and doing everything the LC says to encourage let down but still no luck. The LC says she doesn't know what else to try...
