Hi ladies.

I have just over a week to go before im due, but have no milk leaking. My last pregnancy i leaked from about 25-30 weeks. Is anyone else in the same position?

thanks natalie
 
ive been leaking from 20 weeks but my MW asked the question at our AN classes and not many said they have been at all - you dont need the milk yet so i wouldnt worry too much - it will soon come in once bubs is here :hug:
 
Hi natalie - i'm a week overdue and in early labour and i not had any leakage even though i been doin manual expression n what not - tis totally normal and natural not to have any leakage until after your baby is born :) x x x
 
Some people dont have any leaking at all though thier pregnancy i remember quite a few girls when i was in tri 3 who were concerned about the same thing
and went on o breast feed afterwards with no problems so i wouldnt worry
you milk will come in when you need

I'm exactly the same, when I was pregnant with DD I leaked loads and from about 25 weeks, this time I haven't leaked a drop, I don't think it's anything to worry about!

Your boobies are obviously saving themselves for the bubba, they dont want to waste a drop :D
 
Im pretty much at the same stage as you and im not leaking either! I did have a quick squeeze as was worried and there was something but really not much atall!

I didn't leak either

Nothing was there till Finlay was born and he was 3 weeks early

Don't worry about it - there will be plenty there :D
 
Its quite normal to not have any leaking at all before baby arrives. Nothing wrong with it.

Hormones are released during labour that kick start your body to producing colostrum for baby and then becoming milk.
 
iv only had one pregnancy but i didnt leak either- except for one solitary drop at 37/38 weeks- yet i had an ABUNDANT milk supply! so i dont think theres any need to worry :hug:
 
I didn't have any leakage at all until my milk came in about 3 days after Pops was born.

In the last weeks of my pregnancy I could get a drop out if i sqeezed but that was all!!
