It's not actually milk, it's colostrum. It's what you will feed your baby once it's born, but before you milk comes in. It can start as early as 5 months. I'm leaking now, but I just stopped breastfeeding my other baby when I found out I was pregnant so that's probably why for me. It's nothing to worry about, but try to not squeeze it out. It can be tempting to try to milk it out either out of curiosity as to what it looks like or because it's uncomfortable at times, but don't do it. Just wear a breast pad(I prefer avent brand, because they don't fall apart when soaked).

I started at 3 months along with my first... it's normal and it won't cause you or the baby any problems if you intend to breastfeed at birth. You dont' have to worry.

Very normal. It happens at different times with different people.

This is very normal. It happened with all of our babies and we have 4.
