As above stated you can leak very early in pregnancy and everyone is different. With my first I started at about 20wks, 2nd didnt at all was like NicoleW09 milk never came in,.now with my 3rd im at 19wks and already leaking so its varies from person to person and pregnancy

I never leaked, and after I gave birth I had a very low supply and ended up drying up. I've also heard it's a good indicator that you'll have a good supply. It's also normal to leak and many women do.

I believe it's pretty normal. The breast can leak colostrum as early as 16 weeks pregnant.

Not necessarily. I leaked colostrum from 25 weeks till I gave birth at 39 weeks. Some women will just leak for weeks or months during pregnancy - the LC told me it's supposed to be a good indicator that you would have an adequate milk supply.
