💧 Gently expressing drops of colostrum from your breasts before baby arrives.
Why do it?
✔️ Back-up milk for the first few feedings
✔️ Helps you learn your own anatomy
✔️ Especially helpful for parents with gestational diabetes
🕰 Start at 36 weeks
⏱ 5–10 min, 1–2x per day
🤲🏾 Hands only—no pump needed
