STMs milk come in faster?

Hello,

I stopped BF my son at 14 months (roughly 5 months ago) and I am due with baby #2 and day now. I am curious, for those who had recently stopped BF, did your milk come in faster after having the next baby?

I stopped nursing DS1 when I was 15 weeks pregnant so it wasn't as recent as you will be but my milk came in about 2.5 days after having DS2 which is exactly the same amount of time it took for it to come in for DS1.

I had my children 4 years apart - 2 years after stopping feeding. My milk took 3 days to come in the first time and less the 24 hours the 2nd time.

I nursed right through pregnancy but my milk turned to colostrum at 16w. It turned back to milk around day 3 I think and I was massively engorged but also tandem nursing.

Both babies were born on a Wednesday. With my first my milk didn't come in til Sunday night. With DD it was in by Friday afternoon

For me it did. I BF DD until she was 20.5 months (weaned when I was 8w pregnant).

I weaned when I was 12 weeks pregnant and my milk came in at about 30 hrs after lo was born. With my second it was closer to three days, my first was five days.
