Hey Ladies 👋🏻

So I'm currently 20 weeks + 3 days pregnant and I woke up last night needing a wee which as you all know happens on a regular basis for us haha! When I realised my pj top was wet... At first I thought it could be dribble or something, but I never usually do that! Then I realised it was slightly sticky and coming from one nipple... On inspection of my boob it indeed was a little wet 🤔

Slightly freaked out!!! Surely it cant be my milk this early? Should I let my midwife know? I have any next scan and jabs booked for tomorrow anyway but wondered if anyone has had a similar experience?

I've woken up this morning and my tops dried kind of crispy 🙄🤔🤦🏻‍♀️😂 (Sorry TMI)

Didn't know if this was normal or not? 😳

Totally normal and nothing to worry about.

Totally fine! Happened to me both times at around 20 weeks, was mostly when I took my bra of at night or when I got out of the bath.

That's good to hear, thanks ladies! They feel quite hot to touch this morning but that's a norm for me I think 🤔🙌🏻

It's colostrum that can leak during pregnancy

Yep, had exactly the same on my first pregnancy.

I'm 24 weeks with second pregnancy, but haven't had any leaking this time.
