Engorgement

The first milk that your body starts making in late pregnancy is called “colostrum.” When your baby is 1–5 days old (normally, about 3½ days old), your milk supply will increase. This is when your milk “comes in.” As your breasts get full with milk they may get hard, swollen and painful. This is called engorgement. It is best to avoid getting engorged, if possible.

Fussy baby

Your baby will “talk” to you in many ways. You will soon learn what his looks and movements mean. For example, when your baby opens his mouth, he may be saying “I’m hungry.” Crying is also a way your baby can talk to you. Your baby may be too hot, cold, bored, excited, gassy or sleepy; his diaper may need changing; he may want to suck on something; or maybe he is sick. The “fussies” will get better over time. This also happens with bottle-fed babies, so it’s NOT your breast milk.
