    I can't remember when or if this happened with DS...but I was just sitting here surfing the net when I realized that one of my breasts was leaking milk (or whatever)...not a ton, but some...I'm 30 weeks pregnant...seems awfully early to be leaking???

    Please tell me that it's not some PTL sign or something...

    I've been leaking a bit since about week 18 and did early one with my other kids too and by week 30ish i was leaking pretty good in the past. Its a good sign for you that your boobs are doin what they're supposed to be doing so i wouldnt be worried. :D

    Mine started around 30 weeks too. Just a tiny bit, but enough that I started wearing pads. It kind of freaked me out, but I found out it was normal.

    It is normal for them to leak. Just get some nursing pads.

    I was thinking about this the other day ... I couldn't remember when it happened during my first pregnancy, so I squeezed a bit to see if anything happened, and sure enough, a little came out ... I was probably like 25w when that happened. So far, it hasn't happened on it's own ... and I don't even remember that happening last time ... But I think at 30 weeks it would be probably be considered totally normal ...

    That's about when it started happening for me this time around. It's perfectly normal and I think it's more likely to happen if you've already given birth. I didn't leak with my first, but I did with my second and again now.

    I've been leaking consistently since week 19 and my doc said it's fine. I wake up and my tee is crusty around my breasts...constantly washing my sheets. Lovely! <_<
    Hoping it's a sign that I will be a good milk producer...

    20 Weeks is when it started for me. It was the same with my son aswell.

    Mine just started leaking again too, and I am 29 weeks tomorrow! With my first pregnancy, I only leaked once.... but this one, I leak at night a lot, and sometimes during the day. Always, when I least suspect it so it goes through my clothes....LOL.

    I started leaking around 20 weeks and usually at night. Eww!

    A good friend who's daughter breast fed and milked like a cow had some handy advice for me. Instead of sinking money into the breast pads to use standard panty liners if you leak alot!

    Hope this is not TMI but I could squeeze milk out in week 7! I don't know if it's the real stuff or not? I'm sure it is only a good sign.
