Gross - but I've just showered after work and was towel drying and noticed potential nipple leaking that had dried up (I'm so sorry everyone 🤮), but only a tiny dot size amount. I'm 13 weeks today, dating scan tomorrow but we think I'm pretty much on the mark due to my lmp.

Is this just a normal pregnancy thing? I wasn't expecting it so early!

It will be colostrum

That's not gross! Or anything to be ashamed of! It's just your body getting ready to feed the baby. Sounds like you are leaking colostrum. Mine is always there after a shower, I think the heat causes it. It's been there from around week 20 for me, but I have heard of leaking early.

Thanks lovelies - first pregnancy so very new to everything! As long as we're sounding normal then onwards with the leaking!
