Im 19 weeks and my boobs have already started leaking! I know its all hormones but is there anything i can do to stop it?? I dont want to be wearing bra at night and breast pads already!! Have enough of that after birth!

Nope not that I know of. All part of it and though it may fluctuate between now and the birth, it's probably here to stay.

Sleeping on a towel or similar can negate the need for pads though?

I'm 21 weeks and my boobs have started leaking too a while ago? At first they were just staining my t-shirt when I wasnt wearing a bra? but last week, one of them properly leaked and stained the bed! A stain as ig as a 50p coin! Couldn?t belive it..
Since then, nothing..

It looks to me that it happens after sex. Is that the same with you mad4mybaby?

Mine have just started and im nearly 30 wks. Its only a small amount, but was bit surprised that its bright yellow!!! I thought it'd be more a milky watery colour. Is this normal, or has my milk gone off??

Mine have been leaking for a while, since about 25 weeks maybe. They usually start when cuddling with DP which is quite embarrassing
Yes it is supposed to be yellow, because atm they're making thick nutritious colostrum which your baby needs in the first few days after birth, after which your milk comes in.

I got really annoyed at my boobs the other day after I woke up with the duvet soaked and freezing cold in large patches where they had been resting. I really don't want to start wearing a bra in bed either! But it seems to come and go. If my body temp goes up or I'm horny they start!
