Colostrum Harvesting

I started (trying) to collect from 36 weeks onwards - that’s when my midwife advised

@Ceri how are you storing it?

Putting the dates on syringe packets then storing in a lunchbox in freezer - plan to take this to the hospital

I would do exactly what people have said above and one thing I did read about is if u manage to collect loadssss then take half with you if ur close to home, cos then if u need it for longer can always get partner or family to get the rest from freezer x

37 weeks is suggested for colostrum harvasting. Its great not only for collecting your golden milk but also for stimulating your milk production. Its good to have it as an option in cases of seperation between mom and baby, but still direct frequent breastfeeding and breast stimulation in hospital is key.
