3rd Trimester

Colostrum/Leaky Breasts

 So I heard that colostrum starts to come in the third or fourth month of pregnancy. I'm 31w 5d, 36-38 D, and haven't leaked at all. Does this mean my boobs are just too big to fill up to the leaking point? Lol, but really. Why do some people (like me) not leak, but some do?

  • Everybody is different during pregnancy---this is one of those things that vary from woman to woman.....just like those who experience BH contractions and those that don't.

  • I never leaked while pg with DD. However, I have been leaking for the last couple of weeks with this LO.

  • Not everyone leaks
  • I didn't leak with my first until about 38 weeks. I am now 35 weeks with my second and no leaking thus far.

  • I was a 34DD throughout my first pregnancy and I started leaking around 20 weeks. So I'd say size has nothing to do with it really. I think everyone is just different. This time around my boobs are little bigger and I haven't leaked nearly as much. Occasionally but not like with DD. And it wasn't a lot until around like 36+ weeks with her.
