Anyone else started leaking colostrum?

[rebekah385]

I have recently start leaking colostrum, it's not a whole lot and it's not all the time, but off and on I am leaking a little bit of colostrum on both sides. I know that this can be pretty normal, but I have a history of preterm labor and this seems a little early still, so I was wondering if anyone else is having this or if maybe I should talk with my Dr about it! any input would be helpful!

My dr said I didn't need to take them out until right before delivery I plan on taking them out about 32 weeks.

The colostrum will leak out of the tips of the nipples. I don't know if piercings would effect that or not. My nipples have turned brown with all my pregnancies. This time, they were brown by 20 weeks. I don't remember with the others. What did your Dr say about the nipple peircings?

[Brittny27]

Hmm I was wondering when this would start. I haven't noticed anything yellow. I have pierced nipples and ocassionally have crusties on the barbell when I clean them in the shower. I don't know if I would be able to tell if it's the normal crusties or colustrum.

My areolas and nipples are still very pink also. I thought they are suppose to turn brown during a pregnancy? When does that usually happen?  I'm 26 wks now.

Yes I have been leaking for about two months now.

Yes, I've been leaking for awhile. I started around 15 weeks with all of my pregnancies.

I have been but I only stopped breastfeeding my son a month ago. Not all pregnant women will leak collostrum. Either way it has nothing to do with preterm labor or whether you will produce enough milk when the baby arrives so dont get worried. It is just another one of those pregnancy things that some do and some dont.

I'm 27 weeks.....still not leaking. When is a pregnant woman supposed to start leaking?

With both of my full term pregnancies I leaked starting around 5 months prego. It was odd to me too. It continued throughout the entire rest of my pregnancy. Good luck and hang in there =)

I'm only 14 weeks but I've noticed something coming out of both breasts as well. I'm not sure if its colostrum or what. Its got me worried too.
