[Emzy1]

Hi just need some reassurance I just lent forward after I had a shower and drops of milk started coming out my boobs, I know it's normal but is it normal this early on I thought it only happens in third tri or when the baby is born

hi there, oh yes very normal i started with this pregnancy probly around 17 or 18 weeks but wth my dd i didnt notice it until like 32 weeks or so, so when it happend so early i freaked haha, But its completely normal hun

Thank you for you reply I was so shocked really didn't think it happened this early

haha i heard that means that you will have a good milk supply when baby gets here. I started leaking so late with my DD that well i had plenty of milk we just couldnt get the whole breast feeding thing down, i think partly because it had come in so late and she was impatient lol. So im hopeing that starting early is a good sign that i will be able to feed my son longer then my DD.

My poor sister... lol... when she was pregnant with my nephew, her breasts were leaking at like 9 weeks. It was awful for her; she didn't even feel pregnant, except for LACTATING! At least you're at the point where it's "normal" to be leaking.

Haha, I noticed mine leaking last week (14 weeks). I mean, I knew they'd be good milk machines, but WHY SO EARLY! Woe is us!

I'll be 22 weeks tomorrow and started leaking a couple days ago. It's not alot yet but it's started. I didn't think it started this early, but it's good to know that it's normal.

I started v. early!!! (about 10 weeks) I couldnt believe it tbh I though leaky nipples were a 3rd tri thing!! but the amount of leakage has increased and for about 2 weeks it's been a bit milky then back to clear!! I'm only 20 weeks now so I dread to think about when Im about to pop I hope they dont get embarrasingly leaky!!

its so annoying, woke up this morning with a horrible crusty t-shirt it feels so funny when lots leaks out. the other day it dripped to my belly!
