What do you do if After a C-section your milk does not come in?
I have had this problem and my lactation consultant told me that I should just keep offering the breast to my baby. The stimulation of the baby suckling will trigger your milk flow.

You may need to breastfeed more often with the colostrum though because it is thinner than milk.
