I was just inspecting my breasts the day before yesterday and white liquid came out of one. Yesterday, some also came out of the other. I'm 27+6 and know that you can show early signs of milk production but I can't seem to find any official information anywhere around when to expect this and what it means.

Has anyone had any similar experiences and can throw some light on it?!

Oh dear, I'm 27+5, I hope I don't wake up with leaky boobs tomorrow!! I've heard it can happen anytime from 5 months?

it just means everything is working as nature intended and absolutely nothing at all to worry over :)

Have had a soaked t shirt most mornings since 23 weeks. Very annoying!

I find at 15w I've already started leaking bits of milk specifically when i go swimming - it's all there on my nips afterwaards.

It's quite common.Think it is a good sign you will have plenty of milk. It didn't happen to me last time, and I never had enough milk to feed DD. Hoping for a miracle this time (12wk pg and boobs no bigger, no leakage).

Just wear some breastpads. I always liked the lanisoh ones.

Just in case anyone is lurking and is worried about wanting to bf and not leaking in pg, I didn't leak in pg and bf 2. Leaking and not leaking are both fine

I haven't had any leakage and nearly 36 weeks (insert smug icon) nut my boobs are itching like mad

Agee with JJJ, no leaking at all when pregnant and plenty of milk post birth. Oversupply in fact.
