Breast milk colour

[joanneang]

hello fellow mummies,

I just delivered my baby boy 2 weeks ago. Back then, my breast milk colour was yellowish, but today it seems whitish and looks more watery.

Is this normal?

Hmmz.. I guess the yellowish color thicker fluid should be colostrum? haha.. dunoe how to spell.. while the white color watery fluid is breastmilk..

Colostrum is the yellow breastmilk secreted until the fifth postpartum day.

Mature milk is the breastmilk that is secreted 10 days postpartum. Breastmilk at this time looks milky white.
