Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

^ yes.

Wait so you can start making milk before you deliver?

Sorry if this is a stupid question!!!

^ yes!!

Taken from babycenter.com:

You may find you leak a few drops of milk during your pregnancy. In fact, your milk-making system will be ready to go some time during your second trimester. You’ll be able to breastfeed your baby even if she arrives prematurely.

ahh yes … another lovely gift of the miracle of life :cb:
if you’ve ever heard or read of pregnant/bf feeding moms say “i feel like a cow” … they arnt just referring to the weight.

invest in some breast pads/nursing pads.

:rotfl:

Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

Yeah.. Some people can even without being pregnant..

Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

Time for some breast pads! :smiley:
Johnsons baby have good disposable nursing pads :slight_smile: I would also recommend Dr Browns washable pads if you want to get the reusable kind :slight_smile:

Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

Holy … Lady you can freeze all the milk it’s good for a year.

Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

ok so is it normal to not leak milk even in the 3rd trimester? No sign of it so far!

Re: TMI !! Breasts and all

Yup! Also normal lol.

Let the leaking begin!!! Invest in some nursing pads because you two are about to become good friends hehe!!!

So crazy how our bodies work! It’s been 20 years since one of my elder cousins gave birth and she experiences the same thing with leakage.
