Second baby - colostrum in TWW?!

Hi, I'm currently in the TWW and wondering whether anyone else has experienced this with subsequent pregnancies/conception. I noticed my boobs had a small amount of colostrum which I don't normally get. Is this a sign? Anyone else had it before and got a bfp?! X

I've had this during the tww, just 6 weeks pregnant now. My 2 year old keeps pulling my shirt down and smelling my chest ...not sure how things will be once my milk actually comes in 😆

Really?! I wonder if it does mean something then. Although I've started spotting today so looking unlikely 😩 I never get colostrum, at most I'll get a pinprick of bright white milk. So strange. Congratulations on your pregnancy!! X

It's an odd one because it seems to have stopped but I did breastfeed for a year and a half, was pregnant for 8 weeks but lost it so these things could have contributed. I hope it's implantation bleeding you have. Keep me updated!

I've had slightly leaky breasts twice during the TWW both times I'm pretty sure, from other symptoms too, that I had conceived but then failed to implant properly. (I don't do early tests so can't be sure, but I am over 40 now so likelihood of failed conceptions / very early losses is pretty high.) I have two DC and breastfed them both but that was ages ago they are 6 and 8. I do vaguely remember I had leaking breasts very early in pregnancy with (I think) DC1 too. So I'm guessing it can be a very early sign?
