I'm 27 weeks with my fourth child and began leaking from my breasts today. I felt it coming now for about a week my chest has been tight (like missing a feeding when nursing). My youngest is 3 1/2, so I don't exactly remember when it started when I was pregnant with her.
I guess I'm just curious when it began happening to the rest of you other pregnant women out there.

With my first, they didn't start leaking until about 2 weeks before I gave birth, and even then, it was only a tiny bit.
With this one, I started leaking at 26 weeks or so, just a little bit some days, but others it will be enough to wet my t-shirt a bit. I'm 34 weeks now, and leaking a bit more, but it's still erratic.
My doctor told me it was comnpletely normal, and that women often start to leak milk earlier with their 2nd child, as the body knows what to do this time round.
You're just getting ready to feed your little one.
Congrats!!

yeah thats about when i started leaking. this is my first child and i did not know that i would leak before the baby was born i woke up in the middle of the nite and felt something wet on the bed when i realized it came from my breast if freaked out and thought i was bleeding! (ihadnt got the lite on yet) when i found out what it was i felt really stupid my fiance still laughs at me he knew that it sometimes happened (his sis just had a baby and he heard her talking about it) now he holds that over my head all the time! Imagine that being the ONLY thing he knows about pregnancy just my luck

I am 34 weeks pregnant with my second child, and I just began to start leaking about a week and a half ago.

Oh my, maybe there is something wrong with me.... mine started leaking before 20 weeks. They don't leak much, just like a drop at night that I will sometimes feel if I brush my arm past it. I'm 25 weeks now.

That sounds about right, I am only 9 1/2 weeks so mine havent yet but when I was pregnant with our daughter, I think that was about the time I did too, I woke up in the middle of the night to pee and my shirt was soaked!! lol Congratulations

I'm barely 27 weeks and mine only leak when they get pressure on them. This is my first, so I don't know what's normal. Congrats!
