I started leaking with my DD at 16 weeks. I'm now 17+2 and thought I'd escaped it but just looked down at my top and lo and behold. Two wet patches at the boobies. Anyone else an early leaker? My milk supply was terrible with DD despite everyone telling me it should be amazing leaking so early on. Definitely not!
 
I never leaked during my first two pregnancies, and haven't leaked so far - am 34 weeks (knock on wood). Had terrific supply - so yeah my guess it means nothing...Fun times.
 
My top is soaked. Just lovely :/ not impressed haha
 
I never leak during pregnancy but i just wanted to let uou know.. I've had three kids and my supply was different each time with my last he had a weaker latch and that "i think" weakened my supply with him big time but with my first i could feed and store weeks of supply for later!! With my middle son i had a good supply as well and seemed like the milk was so rich and fatty!
So you supply might just surprise you this time around.

Even though I know this it's nice to actually hear someone say it! I had supply issues with my first 2 babies, they were both girls and both on the small side so they were tired and had weak latches :( we are finally having a boy this Tim and I'm very optimistic, I don't remember having that many breast chances during pregnancy as I've had with this one, my breasts grew almost immediately, (they never grew with my first 2) and my nipples are super dark and each one has a weird darker line going from the nipple to the outer edge of the aereola sp? Almost like the line that some women get going down the middle of their belly. Anyways I'm very optimistic this time!
 
I leaked at 22 weeks with my first pregnancy and started leaking with this one a couple of days ago. X
 
I started leaking at 19 weeks with my daughter, I'm dreading when it starts again, it's so aggravating! I never stopped producing colostrum though, I still can produce a couple drops but it's turned clear and almost gone away since I got pregnant again so I guess that's the closest I'll ever come to having non-leaky boobs again hahaha

Oh and my supply was crappy. I was only able to breastfeed for 8 months. I spent two days in the hospital unable to pump or nurse and my supply just disappeared. And I never had enough to nurse and pump/store, it sucked. I hope it's better this time. :(
 
I was leaking only at night around 22 weeks and then started leaking little bits during the day here and there but not noticeable but since Monday (24 weeks) I been leaking during the day and night and if I don't wear breast pads I just have circle wet patches.. lovely lol but it's all worth it in the end :)
