Colostrum to bring to KKH

Question

Hihi, ftm here, giving birth in probably 1-2 weeks time. I have already started collecting colostrum in 1ml syringes.. May I know how many of these syringe I should bring to KKH? Or it is ok for me to leave them at home and give baby when we go back home.Thank you! #newmom #colostrum

Congrats on your upcoming delivery! I would bring at least 5 to 10 syringes with you, because the first feeds right after birth are when colostrum matters most, and you want enough to cover those initial hours before your milk comes in. Leaving it at home means you would miss that window, especially if baby needs a top-up and you are still recovering in the ward.
