Colostrum happens after delivery. If you are having breast discharge, it could represent a hormone imbalance, a medication side effect, due to sexual stimulation, or a breast problem. See your health care provider to talk about the next steps to take. Do not squeeze the nipples to elicit more discharge, as doing so can confuse the issue. The next time you check should be during your exam. If discharge is coming from your breasts even if you don't squeeze, call your health care provider today.

Can you drip a little colostrum out of your nipple 5 years later?

Yes, my son is five years old and stoped breast feeding when he was 2 almost three. I recent noticed i had colostrum in my breast. not much but a little. My doctor told me it was normal. Also if you are taking birth control it can also cause your body to produce milk. like the patch.


How long do you have to feed a lamb colostrum?

Colostrum is vital to give the lamb agood immune system. It is best absorbedin the first 24 hours of the lambslife. After that it is just digested. If thelamb does not get this it will not haveany immediate source of antibodies tofight infection, and scours or other problems.The best source of colostrum is of courseewe's milk direct from mum but that is not alwayspossible. Colostrum milked from anotherfreshly lambed ewe is the next best option. Ifthat is also not possible then fresh cow colostrumfrom a cow just calved will do. If that failsthen colostrum substitutes are available butare expensive and not as effective.Lambs should get at least one day (500ml) ofcolostrum fed in 6 to 8 feeds before milk replaceris started but any you can get into thelamb (even as little as 30ml) will help.Colostrum replacer is available (jumpstart) which can be used if no fresh is available and it is suggested to give a lamb colostrum for the 1st 4 days as this is what it would naturally have with its mother.It also suggests weight of lamb-amount of colostrum ratio .

What is colostrum and is it safe to drink?

Colostrum is the pre-milk from the breasts. Colostrum is a fluid that precedes the production of real breast milk. It is very rich in antibodies and minerals. It doesn't produce nearly as much as breast milk, but it is filling for a newborn baby who can only consume teaspoons to a tablespoon of milk in the very beginning. It may appear just before labor and delivery of a newborn, or it may not appear until up to 24 hours post-partum. You may only produce colostrum for anywhere from a couple of days to a week or two before breast milk comes in. It is 'safe' to drink. Your newborn baby depends on this from nursing mothers because of the fact that it is so much richer in antibodies, nutrients, and minerals than regular breast milk. It's a great jump start in the health of your newborn if you are nursing. It's just as safe for an adult to drink - say if you 'leak' a little colostrum if you and your partner are having sexual relations (foreplay or intercourse or both) - but it may not taste all that great to your partner. However, for newborns, the taste is great! I wouldn't recommend your partner to try to 'milk' the colostrum from your breasts just for the purpose of drinking it himself (or herself). Save this milk to be nursed by your newborn! But 'accidents' do happen and they will leak when you become aroused also, and in this case, he (or she) will be just fine if they accidentally have a swallow.

When the wax falls off a mares teats will she deliver soon?

Could be. This is a sign that birth is near. But sometimes a mare will 'wax up' and the milk will start to leak out. A little is fine but if too much leaks out the mare could be loosing the "colostrum". Colostrum is the first milk that the mare produces and it contains all the immunities for the new baby to keep him healthy. If it leaks out before the foal can drink it, he won't live long. They have to have the colostrum. If you think your mare is leaking too much colostrum call your vet.

If wife is pregnant with 1 month can she produce milk for her husband?

Women only produce colostrum, not milk, until they give birth. Most women can produce colostrum it by the time they are halfway through the pregnancy -- one month in is a little early. The most important factor to consider is whether the woman is interested in doing this.
