    Question leaky breasts?

    I'm 31 weeks today and just wondered if anybody's breasts were leaking? I honestly don't remember if mine did this early with my first two. I asked my hubby if he remembered, and he said he didn't think so, which is kind of what I was thinking, too. They're not actually leaking, but I noticed after I showered tonite that I could squeeze a bit of clear out of them. Sorry if that's TMI!!! So, just curious, anyone else?

    Oh yeah, mine started at FOUR months...It scared me, but my doc assured me that it was perfectly normal. Now, I am at 37 weeks..and..I wake up every morning with a soaked bra.

    There isn't a set amount of time..but I would start wearing one unless you want breastmilk on your mattress.

    sept29, that's great that you feel better! Mine started hurting again around 31-32 weeks, so be prepared! I wear a sports bra to bed just for the support. They don't seem to hurt as badly if I do that. But I don't do it every night.

    So what do husbands do when your breasts return to normal size post pregnancy and nursing??? I've been either pregnant or nursing nonstop for 3 1/2 years now and I'm afraid my hubby is going to be sorely disappointed when I'm done being pregnant and nursing number 3!

    lol! He'll probably just be glad to have them back all to himself!! My dh hates having to share them with the baby, especially before he's born!
