Shrunken, non-leaky boobs

Am currently 36+5 and just started my ml so have nothing better to do other than worry and read pregnancy magazines. However, these have got me worried about my boobs. I am still wearing my pre-pregnancy bras and actually feel like my boobs are smaller than ever before. Also, I keep reading about people with leaky boobs from quite early on and I can honestly say mine have never even shown the remotest sign off leaking anything. Is this a sign that I might have trouble being, as I really want to give it my best try, or am I worrying about nothing and leaky boobs are the minority???

Mine never leaked until several days after giving birth. Bf two for 26m each.

I am currently 32w and carrying a pair of deflated balloons in my bra. Attractive.

my boobs are definitley smaller now than they were in early pg at 36+5. they are also not 'leaking' at all, but I got curious and if I give them a good massage and squeeze a tiny bit of colostrum will come out!! you could try if your interested like me!!Wink

No change in mine until 3 days after the birth... then WHAM! Boobs of immense and terrifying power appeared on my front!

Thanks ladies for the wise words.... I think maybe they look so small as being dwarfed by the giant belly underneath. How do you go about buying a nursing bra for hospital if you don't know how big they're going to get???

My breasts leaked from 36 weeks onwards with DS. The size never changed, even during breastfeeding. Just the shape. I had cone boobs and now they're rounder (thank goodness) Grin My DH misses the cones. Sorry, I digress haha

I wore those bra tops from m&s. it's much easier to hoik your boob out and back in again from one of those than a proper nursing bra.
