    Ok Dazzle freshened on Monday and it's now Friday. I have PLEANTY of milk between Dazzle and Vi and I am wanting to keep some milk for us to use. Is it too soon to use Dazzle's milk? Should I wait until sometime next week to start using it? I don't want it to mix with Vi's milk and make it taste nasty if it's too soon to use.

    Thanks in advance!

    I tested that this year, drinking some each day from day 1. By day two, the colostrum was not apparent.
