Antenatal Colostrum Harvesting

Colostrum is the optimal food for newborns until your milk transitions.
If it is anticipated that a baby may experience difficulties with feeding or maintaining their blood sugar levels after birth, expressing colostrum antenatally means that your baby will have a supply of breast milk available if required, therefore reducing the need to use infant formula.

This mini course gives a general overview of the practise of antenatal harvesting of colostrum, who may benefit from this practice and when this practice is not suitable. It is highly recommended to watch all the videos of this mini course as it is vital t have the background information before starting the process.
