Can you all tell I am finally caught up on my lactnet reading? Delete unread
posts? Surely you jest!
Well, I would like to revisit this prenatal colostrum expression thread. I
agree it makes sense for at risk mothers and babies. However, I also agree
that hosp birthing in my area of the world is an at risk event nowadays. I
had a mom with inverted nipples and we talked about things she could do
prenatally. This would be an option for her! I would recommend she start at
37 or even 38 wks, as I see some 37 wkers who act like premies.
What I want to know is this:
Is there any harm in doing this? [first, do no harm]
Is the prenatal colostrum the same as the postbirth colostrum, as far as
lactose content etc? It would seem so, but maybe not?
