I didn't leak with my last pregnancy, I nursed him until I was 2 months pregnant wth this pregnancy. I wouldn't worry about it! I do suggest, using the hospital grade rental pump while at the hospital. I found that it helped my milk come in faster with my last baby than with my first pregnancy. I would pump after each feeding (even when nothing came out).
I've started at 27 weeks. It's reaaaaaally small leakage, barely a drop, and it only happens when I'm not wearing a bra. Boo. But yeah, just enjoy not having the strange sensation.
I started leaking with my first pregnancy at 19 weeks. I didn't leak at all with my second. Until after birth that is. And then it really only happened if I waited too long to pump or feed her. Or in the shower. I haven't leaked at all this time yet either at 29 weeks.
Well I'll be the odd ball then . I didn't leak with my first , started leaking at 25 weeks with my second and with this one I've been leaking since 16 weeks .
I had one leak the other day because I was laying on my left boob kinda weird... It was on my shirt and the bed. Oops. Hasn't happened since then but I went and bought pads just in case.
I started leaking around 20 weeks. As pp said though, it's not an indicator of whether you will be able to breastfeed or not. My mom leaked with both me and my sister, but never had enough milk to feed us. My sister didn't leak at all and had no problems breastfeeding.
I'm glad you asked this question since it had been on my mind too. I'm not leaking and I saw that it was a "symptom" a few weeks ago (but was glad I didn't have to worry about breast pads). Of course, I'm not getting BH, either, and I'm okay with that too!
With my first never. Only had one breast come in about 3 days after he got here. He was an early c section. With my second it came in right after I gave birth VBAC.
31+ weeks here and no sign of leaking, luckily. But I wasn't concerned because all my reading says it may or may not happen and not to worry if it doesn't.
I started leaking around 16w, and this is my first pregnancy. As PPs have mentioned, it's nothing to worry about. I've heard it has no correlation to milk supply after Baby arrives.
This is my 5th pregnancy. I've never leaked with any of them. I had plenty of milk. I nursed all of them for 1 year...no pumping, no bottles, and no formula. I wouldn't worry at all.
Curious with the moms that leaked during pregnancy the nursed after birth, did you leak a lot after birth?
I have never leaked during any of my pregnancies and was lucky enough to only really leak in the beginning of nursing, like the first 2 weeks. I was wondering if there is any connection to this???
Re: When did you start?
And to answer that question with my first 3 not until a day after they were born and I assume it will be the same with this one to.
It really is no indication of supply. No need to worry.
