My boobs are leaking!!! (TMI) ;o)

I never thought I would be so excited about that happening!  I'll spare ya'll the details, but I finally saw both of them actually leaking last night!  I am planning to exclusively BF and I've been nervous because I haven't had any leakage until last night...  Anyone else noticing leakage/ worried about success with breastfeeding?

  • I haven't had any leaking yet, should I be worried that I haven't?

  • I felt this way too but I was in bed doing paperwork one night and kept brushing up against leftie and noticed I had leaked through my shirt! I'd never been so excited for a wet spot before.

  • Leaking  has nothing to do with being able to nurse or not FYI.  so for others- nothing to worry about 
    lolololo
  • strangely enough I sprung a leak from the right boob at like 24 weeks, that soaked through my shirt. Haven't had another instance, but since I am planning on exclusively FF that is ok with me. Congrats on your positive sign!

  • haha, I was grossed out when I noticed leaking at around 27 weeks. I'm not as worried about BFing as I was a few weeks ago. I took a class offered by our hospital and it really helped me to feel more confident about it.

  • Leaking during pregnancy in no way indicates how your milk supply will be during breastfeeding so don't worry if you're not leaking.

  • I leak a lot now. Like, every time I get in the shower I get little colostrum dots on my nipples. Or if I hit my boobs on something and Im not wearing a bra, I notice a little wet spot on my shirt.

  • No worries about production. Leaking early doesn't mean anything. But I did start leaking last night big time out of my left nipple. I was really upset at the time. I wonder if that had anything to do with it? Either way, it is getting closer and I am damn excited about leaky boobs!!

  • To the PP who wrote about leakage not being a sign of whether or not you'll be able to successfully BF, I understand that, but it still felt like a positive sign, none the less! :o)  At least I know that something is going on in there! ;o)

  • I had it once and I was really surprised how much it freaked me out.  I'm definately planning on breastfeeding, but I think it gave me a - Oh crap this is actually happening feeling- and it was a little overwhelming.
