I’m 28 weeks pregnant and for the past few weeks I’ve had 1 very leeky boob. But it seems to only be the one? Is this normal?

Hi OP, I'm in the same boat (although I'm already 32+5). I started a similar thread in the infant feeding section of Mumsnet and got a lot of reassuring comments. Apparently it's nothing to worry about and won't stop us feeding our babies from both breasts. X

Neither of mine leaked.

Posted too soon. Breast fed but children 11 & 18 months respectively.

I had a leaky boob while pregnant. The other occasionally leaked but not so much.
While pregnant I asked the midwife and she said it's totally normal for one, both or neither to leak and it doesn't bear relation to supply.
But once milk came in it was the leaky one that tended to spray, the other only dropped haha. I have oversupply though so you may end up with calmer boobs than me!

A few weeks ago only one felt full - now at 36 weeks and the other has caught up. It's my third pregnancy and i breast fed both my older children, actually one side was always slightly more productive but I only ever noticed when using the pump...
