I have milk!!!!

Was reading last night and suddenly noticed my arm was wet. On closer inspection i found that my boobies were leaking because i was resting my arms on them!
Sorry, random post, i had to share as with my last baby i never produced any milk and was worried the same thing would happen again, but it appears i am in full working order!!

That's really cool for you hun! I have started leaking too and am 27wks but when it first hapened it freaked me out a bit, just made me look at my body in a totally different way and not feeling so attractive anymore

lynz_81 · Mar 3, 2009 2:05PM

Awww Ellisy, there is nothing more attractive than a pregnant woman! (well in my opinion anyway lol)
It is a bit of a pain leaking, but its not huge amounts and breast pads are great, they dont even notice inside your bra, and at least then you know you'll have milk for your baby if you decide to breast feed! xxx

That's great! Must be a relief! I started getting a bit of leaking last Friday and it now seems to just be a bit every night! But I am quite proud of it as at least I know they are working!

Brilliant news, you must be so relieved.

I started leaking at 28 weeks but it has only happened 3 times and has only ever been a tiny amount, twice from my left nipple and last night from my right but never both?!

lol!! what u r leaking is colostrum hun,this is what baby will get for the 1st few days after birth.Your milk will come in somewhere between day 3-5 after giving birth.Theres no need to worry to anyone that dosent leak during pregnancy,i never leaked during my last pregnancy and am still breastfeeding my daughter whos almost 10 mths old.Get those breast pads ready tho!! hehe xxx

Thanks Lynz you're right and reading everyone else's posts I should be proud I am working and making something to help feed my baby as I will be breastfeeding.
