just wondered if anyone else had had this. In my first pregnancy at around 4-5 months I was leaking blood instead of colostrum. When baby was born I had to spend 10 days or so pumping out the breast before blood was replaced by milk. I assume it was some kind of weakness in some of the blood vessels in the breast and it was followed almost immediately by 3 bouts of mastitis followed by a breast abscess. Still managed to keep breast feeding though so wasn't too bad. Anyway, am now pregnant with no.2 and am wondering whether I will get the same thing again.
Just interested in hearing anyone else's experience if they have had this. Doctors hadn't heard of this but b/f councellor in the hospital when ds was born said I was the 9th case she had seen that year so presumably it is not that uncommon?
