Hello!

I think I may be pregnant again- it’s been almost 2 yrs since the birth of my last little one. My breasts are tender and swollen, I am already leaking colostrum but if I am pregnant it would be 2-4 weeks, so its very early. Is this normal for the third time round? Did any other mums who have had more then one child experience leaking colostrum?

  • And ? Did you end up being pregnant ?
    Your body starts to produce colostrum in the first trimester, but moms-to-be usually don’t start leaking breast milk until closer to the end of pregnancy, if it happens at all while they’re pregnant


  • Not that early – but around five months, yes.


  • all the best if you are pregnant


  • How do you know it’s colostrum? I always thought the milk didn’t come in til after the birth. So no, I’ve not experienced this


  • also you could check out the diet


  • Do you have some news you could share with us as this is possible that you may have been with child.


  • Did you find out if you were pregnant?


  • how did it urn out?


  • What did you find out?


  • Wow, I never knew that you could leak that early!


  • How are you going now?


  • Did you find out? Are you pregnant?


  • Did you find out if you were?


  • Ohh sounds like you might be pregnant.


  • My breasts were sore 2 weeks after stopping the pill & turned out I was pregnant. I started leaking colustrum at 18 weeks. Didn’t happen at all with my 2nd pregnancy.
