Boob leakage. Is it normal to have boob leakage during pregnancy? Other people seem to but I've not had any and didn't in my last pregnancy either. I didn't manage to breastfeed last time and really want to this time, but the lack of boob leakage makes me think maybe I'm broken 😕

(I'm realising while typing this how neurotic I sound....!)

Thanks @joclarke! I'm 36+2 so could start now but maybe I'll wait until 37 weeks and have a go x

I just got little 1ml syringes and you have to freeze them within 5hrs of expressing & label time & date too... Best not to start expressing until you are 36wks as it can start labour... You only get like a tear drop out at a time suck it up in syringe and apply pressure again to get more out..! Good luck darling @charlie1510

Thanks @Joclarke I'll look at that. How do you store it? x

@charlie1510 it will but you may need to massage the breast for a while before you try - takes me a good 5minutes to get it started & there is a technique - my feeding nurse showed me but this link is helpful sweetheart.. ссылка…-teach-a-mother-the-technique-of-hand-expressing

@joclarke, I did that when my daughter was newborn. I don't think anything would come out if I tried now x

I never leaked much with my Lil one who was only born on the 16th april...but with my first and second child I leaked a lot. And I stopped breast feeding early with my other two. 🙈 lol so yes very normal. lol

@charlie1510 I am harvesting my colatrum atm - had no leakage but have been hand expressing everyday in case I have any problems feeding baby in the first few hours/days... Speak to your midwife about hand expressing into a syringe xx I only express about 1-2ml a day & it takes me well over an hour xx

Some people just don't leak, my friend has 3 kids and never leaked with any of them but has managed to feed them all, she's lucky she doesn't even need to wear pads. I was like a broken tap during my last pregnancy and struggled to feed once he was born but not really leaked this time x

Starting TWW. Anyone else?

I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

leahbeth I'm so sorry :( hopefully your cycle continues and you get another shot next month.
Thanks! How's the little man doing? I love all your Facebook pictures. What a cutie!!
leahbeth He's doing great. Such a little fatty lol and he's rolling all over now. ??

I feel huge tonight, Harper feels close to my rib cage, but I feel the pressure on my hips. Haha. Not sure if my belly button will pop this go around or not. It didn't during my last two pregnancies but I'm much bigger this time.

I am not sorry for the lack of pants.
