Hey girls! sorry this is TMI, but curious if anyone else is having this!    I am alsmot 25 weeks, and i have had some thick colostrum that i have seen from my breasts, but they have never really "leaked" until last night, i was sitting there and i thought i spilled water on my chest!! but it wasn't from the outside! it kept goign on and off all night! i was just glad i was at home when this happend, could have made for an embarrassing moment for sure!  i hear this can be normal, but curious if anyone else is having this too!?so strange!!! i didn't think it happend this early! Hope everyone is doing well !!! : )

I had this with my first child and starting to feel that way again; the doctor said not to worry it just means that you will be great at breastfeeding.  The one thing he did tell me was if the breasts got too sore or engorged I could use a breast pump to help release the pressure.  So I ended up taking some breast milk that I had pumped and saved with me to the hospital when my first was born!  But after all that he would take a bottle but my friend who delivered at 29.5 weeks couldn't nurse took the stuff I pumped off for her little one!   If you don't already have some buy the reusable nursing pads...I found they worked much better the disposable ones would stick and leave fuzzy stuff on the breast.
