haha u & me both!!! im 27 weeks too, and im glad that it is not just me that is leaking!!! im almost wondering if cuz im leaking now, if it means that i will have a good supply when baby comes!!! luckly it doesnt happen to me when im doing day to day stuff, only when like u said if i put pressure on them or are very relaxed at the end of the day & on my side. before it was just a droplet, now it is seaming to be more of a stream...i guess our bodies are realizing that the baby will be here soon and needs to prepare itself!!! i talked to my dr about this & she said that it is 100%normal!!! but if you have any other concerns id talk to the dr the next time u go... i was worried about it too, like could it possibly mean that i might have an early labor? but my dr reassured me that it is fine. in the next couple of weeks i plan on buying some disposable nursing pads, just to keep any colostrum (thats what she said it was) from leaking into the outside world & embarassing me!!! if i were u id get some pads sooner!!! Congratulations!!!!

Some women leak while PG and some never leak. Either mom can breastfeed with no problems. And leaking breasts has nothing to do with when you'll go into labor either.
Get some breastpads to wear in your bra.

It's not 100% normal, hehe, but it's 100% natural if that matters any. If we're going to leak while pregnant most sites say 35w not 27w... but don't fret, some nursing pads will help the situation a lot, and be proud! It means your body is going to be well prepared for when you breastfeed!

It's perfectly fine.....most generally the farther along you get, the worse the leaking gets. Mine did! Just wear breast pads, if it's that bad. Good Luck and Congrats!

Perfectly normal...I had t start wearing breast pads. Just means that you will have lots of milk when baby comes (I did)

Your fine - it's not uncommon.
Just start wearing nursing pads in your bra and you may want to start wearing bra to bed with these as well, so you don't wake up in a puddle...
