Is there a particular reason why you suddenly start leaking loads of milk?

It kind of started yesterday and have been leaking alot which I find really odd as I can never produce alot of milk when I have babies.

when are you due? i leaked a lot more in my second pregnany, esp the last 3 months, had to wear breast pads at night and sleep on a towel!

End of next month.

It didnt happen in my last pregnancy and that was my second.

Have been having lots of BH's too

oh well your hormones are obviously doing a cracking job

i;m afraid it might not have any bearing on when baby arrives, but certainly means things are gearing up

BH are good, this baby might well come shooting out !!

I really really hope so.

A nice calm and quick home birth would be lovely

Hmmm - doesn't mean the baby's arrival is necessarily imminent I'm afraid!

I got very excited in my first pregnancy because I started leaking milk at 36 weeks whenever I saw a baby, and was convinced it meant I was about to go into labour. I had to be induced at 11 days overdue!

I didn't leak milk at all in my second pregnancy though, so I don't understand what causes it. My first baby was very big and a good feeder, and I produced a lot of milk while breastfeeding him - maybe that has something to do with it, and my body kind of knew it would have to start laying down supplies??!

I started leaking milk at 20 weeks. DD1 born at 40 weeks

Tbh I had resigned myself to the fact that this baby will be late as dd was 4 days overdue and ds was 10 days over.

Things just seem a bit different this time.
