My girlfriend is 25 weeks pregnant and her
breasts are leaking - is this normal?
Sometimes its a lot and then it stops for
a few days. I hope this isn't a sign of
pre-term labour!! Any help / experiences
welcome as we're a little worried.
It's completely normal. I didn't leak at
all during my pregnancy, but it's
different for every woman. I was worried
about that fact that I didn't leak
because I thought it meant I wouldn't be
able to produce enough milk.. but it has
nothing to do with that. I'm not sure why
it happens, it just does. Don't worry! =)

i never leaked! i was actually convinced
that my milk wouldn't come in. i was
wrong, it came in about 3 days after i
gave birth and that's when the leaking
started.

my nipples.. or if i squeeze them when i
get out of the shower some will leak out..

Hey! Ive never been pregnant but im
guessing from the replies that its all
normal....Also a way to find out is a
quick call to your doctor and that should
ease your worries away!
Goodluck!!
