Maybe your milk is changing to add more laxatives ]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 20:21:43 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360501&title=yellow-milk#360501 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360499&title=yellow-milk#360499 Author: Maya

Yup, I had freaky yellow milk from antibiotics or vitamins, can't remember which one but I did post a thread about it lol. Like Janine said, milk can be so many different colors, I spent 10 weeks expressing and no 2 lots were ever the same. I even had pink milk a couple of times from blood from my cracked nipples.]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 20:20:16 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360499&title=yellow-milk#360499 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360429&title=yellow-milk#360429 Author: fattartsrock

annnnnd sometimes what you eat/drink can affect the colour.

Milk can be all sorts of colours, trust me i have seen so many variations it's not funny, I handle expressed milk a thousand times a day/every day.

It can range from watery pale white in colour, to thick and creamy rich yellow colour (which usually means it's wonderfully full of rich creamy good fats) some milk from some people even has a distinct green tinge to it, if you didn't express you really wouldn't know any different.

Keep a watch for the things Neeks said about just in case, but as far as i know i haven't seen too much change in the milk of mums i deal with when they have had mastitis.

Also remember that over time your milk can change, and at different times of the day it can be fuller and thicker - which can tend to be mornings especially, and it can also be different in colour depending on what you have been eating too sometimes if you have had things that are rich in good fats etc it can transfer thru]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 16:55:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360318&title=yellow-milk#360318 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360295&title=yellow-milk#360295 Author: Snickerdoodle

you say your feeling run down?? You could have the early stages of mastitis and that creamish coloured milk your getting when expressing is actually infection.. Does it seem thicker at all??
Check your boobs for red patches and feel for lumps.. sometimes mastitis takes a few days to show up properly and a fever and being run down is usually a good inclining that you have it ]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 16:03:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360293&title=yellow-milk#360293 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360292&title=yellow-milk#360292 Author: Snickerdoodle

I expressed this morning at about 11:30 after Hannah didn't finish both sides. I got about 60mls and it's quite yellow looking (if you've seen the movie Napoleon Dynamite and you remember the scene where he's blind testing the milk and one is yellow cos the cow got into an onion patch...it's like that).

It's always really white.
Is it strange that it's tinged? I often express at this time of day, so I know it's nothing to do with that.
I've been feeling a little run down and off colour the last few days. I'm wondering if this can cause this..

I've taken a photo, but I'll spare you. It's more so I can show my plunket nurse if Hannah has any ill effects from it.

Paranoia! ]]> Sat, 19 Apr 2008 15:58:09 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16488&PID=360292&title=yellow-milk#360292
