Okay, What the Heck?!

in 2nd Trimester
I'm 24 weeks pregnant and all of a sudden my boobs are LEAKING.  It's anoying as heck...  Any suggestions on how to stop it? It gets worse, and obvious, at the most inopportune moments.

    Wear nursing pads. I have had to since 19 weeks this pregnancy.

    Ug.  Another great "side effect" I get to explain to my other half, lol! I didn't have this with my first pregnancy.

    Is this something that I can look forward too?!  I didn't realize they could start leaking so soon....is it actually milk leaking from them at this point?

    Not everyone has leaking, even when BF.  No, it's not milk, it's colostrum, the super nutritious first milk.

    Your SO does know what breasts are for correct?  Other than just fun bags of course.  Not really sure what there is to explain.  

    Like PPers said, get some breast pads, no biggie.

     

    My husband told me straight out that he is going to be very jealous of our son once he is born because he gets to "have his sustenance" from my "glorious huge breasts."   He mentions this EVERY DAY.   Lucky me!

    I freaked at 20 weeks with my first when this started happening. It did end a big fight my Dh and I were happening because he couldn't stop laughing when he walked into the bathroom and I was freakibg out. Apparently he ha read about this and knew it was nothing to worry about but I did not. This time I know what to expect. Nursing pads are in your future. No big deal.

    It doesn't happen to everyone, so no need to worry. I nursed my daughter for 17 months and it never happened once during pregnancy or after she was born.
