Leaking Colostrum Posted: 10-14-07 09:19am
I know this has been asked before, but
when did you guys start leaking? I'm going
on 34 weeks, and this weekend I noticed
that they were leaking more than just a
tiny bit.

I've been leaking forever now--since 18
weeks (I'm 31 weeks now)! This is my
first so there is no way my body is
remembering what to do from a past
pregnancy. My OB says everyone is
different how the pregnancy hormones
affect them as to when/if they leak
colostrum. If you don't leak though, it's
not a cause for concern either; many women
don't leak during pregnancy and still are
able to breastfeed just fine.

I started leaking around week 24, I think.
Some days were heavier than others.
Breast pads are about to become your new
best friend for awhile!!!!
