Why is hand expression the thing I emphasize the most in my prenatal visits?! Because I see how much it HELPS when women express their colostrum in the early hours and days after delivery 🤚🏼🤚🏽🤚🏾 it can prevent so many common breastfeeding problems. The more milk you get out in those early days and hours, the more milk you will produce in the long term…and the key to successful breastfeeding is an abundant milk supply!

Gabriella Parisi on Instagram: "🖐️ How to hand express breast milk (or colostrum!) 💛 Learning to hand express can take a bit of practice — and that’s totally okay! 🤲 Start by making a “C” shape with your thumb and fingers just outside the areola (the darker area around your nipple). ⬇️ Push back gently toward your chest wall, 🤏 then squeeze your fingers together for about 2 seconds, 💨 and release for 2 seconds before repeating. ✨ You can collect the colostrum or milk using a small syringe —

Hand express directly into a syringe or small cup. Suction the expressed colostrum into a syringe or colostrum collector. Store in fridge (4 days) or freezer with date labeled. Have available after a home birth or bring to a birth center or hospital and keep on ice/cold to be used if needed. If you don’t end up using it after birth, it can be frozen to be used at any time to help with immunity or give your baby a little something extra. Did you hand express? I would love to hear your experience!

BREASTFEEDING SUPPORT on Instagram: "Colostrum: The OG immune booster! 💪✨ Why express colostrum? This early milk is packed with antibodies that can help the whole family when germs are making the rounds. 🤧 Hand expressing and storing colostrum isn’t just for the newborn days—it can be a game-changer when illness strikes! Have you ever saved a stash of liquid gold for those under-the-weather moments? You can express colostrum drops into a spoon and then use a small syringe to draw up the milk.
