Many mothers begin to leak colostrum (sometimes called premilk) while they're pregnant, typically sometime in the third trimester. Other expectant moms don't. Either way, it's normal. You might want to wear nursing pads in your bra to protect your clothes if you're leaking. You can buy these at most drugstores.
Congratulations on your pregnancy and good luck to you!

No, that's totally normal. It's your colostrum, the first milk that is packed with immunities for baby. Some women leak during pregnancy and some don't. Some leak early in pregnancy, some not until the last trimester. Either way, the mom can breastfeed just fine after the birth. And it doesn't mean anything reguarding when the baby will be born.

As your pregnancy progresses, your body naturally begins to prepare for the nearing birth and subsequent feeding of your new baby. What you were leaking was an early form of breast milk called colostrum. It is common for some of it to leak from your nipples as a way for your body to check to see that "all systems are operational". It is nothing to be concerned about. You may want to keep a small notebook in your purse or next to your bed so that when things come up that you wonder about or if you have questions to ask your doctor you can write them down for your next appointment.

the sole way you could tell she's pregnant is with a being pregnant attempt (or whilst a infant pops out yet somewhat overdue then lol) Breasts can furnish out milk for many reasons. If it particularly is only one breast then get it regarded at via your GP, yet whilst it particularly is the two then it particularly is plenty extra in all probability to be simply by 'over stimulation' which in actuality capacity you like squeezing or sucking them and that has inspired the breast to start creating somewhat of milk

it is normal in the last few months of pregnancy for premilk called colostrum to be expressed from the breast. This "premilk is high in protein, vitamins and natural antibodies to diseases. If you decide to breast feed, these antibodies will give your baby extra protection. Good luck with your new baby!

Nope, it's normal. I even knew a new mother who would "leak" whenever she heard a baby crying, whether it was her own child or not!
P.S. I hope you do breastfeed...it will keep your child healthier because he'll get your antibodies with the milk to help his body fight colds and stuff. Good luck!

It's absolutely natural!! It's your body's way of preparing for your birth-irregardless of whether you breastfeed or not. It's your "milk dropping." If you decide not to breastfeed, your doctor will give you something to take to dry it up. Don't worry about that at all...

No, its normal. It also happens for months after you give birth, even if you dont breastfeed.
