Question for moms who are or did nurse?

Question

Im due to have my second baby soon, and want to also nurse her.. with my first it took 3-4 days for my milk to come in.. and my son was so frustrated with getting nothing that i had to supplement with formula which i dont want to do again.. will my milk come in quicker since this is my second baby... and/or anything i can do to ensure my milk will come in sooner that 3-4 days after she is born.

Answer 1

I am not sure your milk will come in quicker, but the baby needs that colostrum just as much as it will need the milk later....avoiding the formula is the right way to go.  Luckily, all babies are different, and since most babies are not bothered by the milk coming in with a small delay, your second child may not have any troubles in this department.
