  • I'll probably be behind ya! Can you wear nursing covers or something to save your bras?

  • I'll have to see what I can find for loose cotton comfy bras to wear while sleeping. I just want to let the girls be free at night and not all constricted in a tight bra. I keep getting warm sticky milk trickling down; YUCK!!

  • I'd def recommend nursing pads. I had some milk dry up and then my bra stuck to my nipples and it was really uncomfortable. Then again, I was nursing so they were all torn up, so maybe it's not so bad for you to peel the bra off. :) but if you are interested, there are some that are cotton pads and reusable.

    @LeoLauren - not supposed to pump or express while pregnant.  It can bring on premature labor.  Also, yes, it would make it worse.  :)

  • Girl I'm right there with you!  I've been leaky since 16 weeks.  I had no idea what it was the first time, all I knew was that I woke up with stains in my bra and it literally smelled like rotting....so gross!  Nothing was wet, but it was all dried up and in the crevices (TMI??).  Let me know if you find something that works and I'll do the same!  So far I've just been sucking it up since it doesn't seem to happen every day, just here and there.

  • maybe try sleeping in a spandex tank top and use nursing pads or even a soft cloth laid between your breast & the tank top.  

    When nursing my last one I would wake up in a puddle of milk every night and actually started putting a hand towel in my shirt.  the nursing bras were too uncomfortable to sleep in
