So I have noticed my boobs are starting to leak a lil. I don't know if it is normal. I mean I did have like small boobs before but now they aren't so small. Is it because my boobs have grown alot that I am leaking now. Is it normal an is ok. It's not alot but I questions. Can anyone help me.

This is fine and completely normal. Your breasts are changing in preparation for breast feeding. That is why they havfe grown, etc. The fluid they are leaking is not breast milk, it is called colostrum. It is high in nutrients and calories for babies. Your breast milk will come in about 3 days after the baby gets here. Until then, the baby will drink the colostrum. If you breast feed, that is.

Everything is fine.
