Colostrum Question..

mtestonmteston member
in 2nd Trimester
It's been 3 years since I had DS 1 so I don't remember EVERYTHING about being pregnant but I'm 23 weeks and I already have PLENTY of colostrum. I don't remember it being so soon with DS 1 but I guess it's possible? I don't have the what to expect book anymore so I was wondering what you ladies think?

    Normal. All my weekly update thingies have been letting me know since around week 17 or 18 that my body is producing colostrum and I might start leaking/crusting soon.

    So far no leaking, but my breasts have been extra full and round lately, and my nipples are starting to look like giant purple animal teats. lol

    I noticed it around 16-17 weeks and this is my first.  I think it's perfectly normal.  I hope it's a good indication milk production will be plenty after DD is born, and it will potentially be easier to nurse...
