Is it normal to leak colostrum in mid pregnancy?

Answer by  wendyj (359)

Yes, it is very normal to leak colostrum while pregnant. Your body has increasing hormones that support pregnancy and lactation. It's normal to begin leaking from your breasts at any time in your pregnancy as the hormones increase.

Your body will begin producing colostrum around the third month of pregnancy. Some women may leak their colostrum and some don't, but either way is perfectly normal. You may want to stock up on nursing pads to avoid those embarrassing wet spots!

It's not uncommon for this to happen. While most Women don't leak until the last few weeks of pregnancy some Women have been known to leak milk much earlier than that. Just let your doctor know you're leaking breast milk and get yourself some nursing pads.

Yes this is very normal. Leaking colostrum is a sign that your body is getting ready to feed another human being.
