When did your colostrum/breastmilk start coming in?

rachi · December 2008

I noticed last night that I started to leak a bit and it seems a bit early. Every where that I read it says that it starts to come in much later.

I am not too worried about it and will mention it to my Dr. at my appointment Tuesday, I am just wondering if there is anyone in the same boat.

I was told it's normal for it to show up before birth and normal to show up after birth. No worries!

I've had colostrum since 17 weeks this pg...good times.

With my first it was around 30 weeks I think. It's normal to have it sooner though.

I just noticed my colostrum this week.

This pregnancy I was 17 weeks when I noticed colostrum. My first pg I think was close to about 32 weeks. My milk didn't come in til about 3 days after i had DD.

I noticed it for the first time about a month ago, so around 27 weeks.

Nope, not yet. I keep looking too like it's a rite of passage - kinda like waiting for your first period. (maybe that should have been in the confession post this am)

I noticed mine last week. But I think it is different for everyone.

With my first pg, i didn't get any colostrum until after i had dd and then my milk came in 5 days later. So far I"m 36+ weeks and haven't seen anything yet.
