lactation...poss. tmi

Tish Terror · Sep 5th, 2009, 16:04 PM

I am now in 30 weeks and everyone says how i should be leaking colostrum... I haven't at all. Should I worry about that?

I mean even when I squeeze nothing comes out. Am I the only one or are there others out there like me?

thank you amylw1! It just kinda worries me because I go to my birthing classes and I'm like the only one there who isn't leaking =/

I didn't leak at all with my first child and still haven't with no.2 (I'm 35w+2)

It varies from person to person; don't worry about it at all.xx

I haven't yet and I am 33 weeks. It seems quite normal, everyone is different.

isn't it just weird? I mean it makes me think, "isn't there supposed to be milk in there? where'd it all go?"

Lol yeah. I do want to try so I'm hoping closer to the time something will appear eventually!

I too hear others talking about it now and wonder why I don't but on the bright side at least we don't have to struggle with breast pads already! (I'm tempting fate now!!)
