Yeah, that came as a shock to me too (we are talking about the chest area, right?), although I think I started a little later than you. Like Ingi says, get yourself some breast pads or in a pinch you can cut a pantyliner and use that until you get some. Leaks can make for some truly embarrassing moments...

wow! 28wks!?! where'd the time go?!?
Consider yourself lucky. I was around 20wks when I started, lol. Perfectly normal. Trust me, more things come out of your body DURING the pregnancy then when you deliver, lol.

consider yourself lucky, if you're planning on breastfeeding this means your body is working towards that goal!

you should consider yourself lucky i didnt leak (i had colostrum, it would come out in the shower but i never leaked) and it took a full week for my milk to come in, i think its probably easier if your already leaking
(i got the colostrum at around 25ish weeks i think)

It is colostrum. Your breasts don't make milk until the baby suckles for a few days.
