Well ladies im just after a bit of reassurance from you really.
This is my 2nd pg but its been 9 yrs since I was pg and with my son my boobs didnt leak until after he was born.
Now im just shy of 21 wksand woke up this morning with a damp patch about the size of a 50p on my nightie!!! They are feeling quite tender today too and they havent felt tender for a long time until today.
Im sure its perfectly normal but as I said just want to hear from other people who have had it and do I have to worry about it happening all the time now?? im so worried they will start leaking while im at work or somewhere embarrassing!!

Thanks Lovelies XX

Hey hun,

I have had this from around 20 weeks too. They just tended to leak when i was sleeping and if i leant on them or something. They have leaked on and off since and i am now 38+5! Apparently it can mean that your body is preparing for breast feeding and that you may have a good supply. Not sure how accurate that it but it makes it a little easier to accept the leaking!

I wear breast pads all the time just now - just in case!

38+5

Mine started leaking from 23+4 and I wear breastpads (most days) just in case...there never seems to be awfully much though, just enough to leave a nice yellow stain :lol:
My sister said her's started leaking a little from 19 weeks so seems to be prefectly normal and hopefully is a good sign that things are in good working order!

Mine started leaking when I was about 18 weeks. I started wearing breat pads at first then realised they only ever leak on a night or when im not wearing a bra. My mw said the hormones that are used in breast feeding are higher on a nighttime which is why people often only leak at night (and why babies want to feed all night)

Aw thats good to hear, thanks ladies. I hope it means ill be able to give breastfeeding a good bash. Only last 8wks with ds as my milk supply began to dry off. Hopefully it will just be at night and actually I didnt wear my sleep bra last night an i usually do so perhaps that was part of the reason, I was lying on my side too so prob leaning on them a bit.
Thanks for the replies ladies, feel much happier knowing others have had this x

mine started leaking at 16wks!

mine started leaking at 16wks!

im 16 weeks and had to buy breast pads last week!! haha!! oh the joys of baby growing! xx

Mine have been leaking since about 18 weeks hun. With my little boy i was alot further on but this time round with my likkle princess everything seems to be in reverse.

Everything i felt at the end with my son i am getting now with Erin. Your not alone. My nipples ache if that makes sense and are so sensitive. x

This is my first pregnancy and my boobs leaked for the first time on Saturday morning wheni was17+6. I was lying in bed , sat up and here was this wet patch! I was horrified-so was hubby i think!! lol!! We laugh about it now though. Just wasn't expecting leaky boobs till after baby was born and milk had come in. I looked in my pregnancy book and apparently it's normal, it's Colostrum-the first milk baby has...

KB 18+1 xx
