baby is here but milk is not

So my baby girl is almost two days old. However my milk has not come in maybe due to a cessation. Shes ready to eat and the hospital is having me pump to get things started.  Only a couple of drops here and there. She latching better but what can I do to make the  milk in? Any suggestions?

Mine started to come in after 4 days.  Just keep feeding her the colostrum.

Just keep doing what your doing. It usually comes in within four days. The baby doesn't need a lot right now, the colostrum you are giving her is very rich in nutrients that are doing great things for her.
