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.
