hi everyone,

i have a question,

when did everyones boobs start to leak?

mine havnt leaked yet and im nearly 27 weeks but a friend of mine asked if they had started leaking yet and i said no,why?
and she said that when she was as far gone as me she said hers wouldnt stop.

is it just everyone is different?

thanks for reading x

Mine only get crusties on them but never actually drip. Both of my sisters said there's didn't even do that, until after they had the baby. I think that Aqua's didn't leak until she was full term as well.

I'll be 30 weeks tomorrow and this hasn't happened to me "yet" (knock on wood). I think that it is different for everyone.

oh so hopefully i get away with it until baby is here.

im not breast feeding but im guessing ill still have a little bit of milk.
will i need breast pads?

I started leaking at 24 weeks. My MW said that was normal, and that it was normal not to leak. Everyone is different, so don't worry about it. Trust me when I tell you that you are not missing anything!

I think everyone is different, mine started to leak about a week ago.

I have leaked a couple of times during this pregnancy, starting a few weeks ago.

Last time I didn't leak at all though and had plenty of milk

If you give them a gentle squeeze you will probably see abit of milk come out, lol.

With my 1st, Mikey, my boobs didn't leak until he was born and then it was only a little bit.

This time I don't know if it will start earlier. I wouldn't worry hun, it's individual.

Mine started leaking but 2/3 weeks ago when i was around 26 weeks, it wasn't much at all, maybe a few drops over a week or two not enough to wear a pad. But they haven't leaked this last week at all. I wouldn't worry.

Mine started very early on at about 19 weeks I think (not that I remember now) but for lots of people it doesn't start till just before or sometimes after they have their baby.
