  1. Your milk won't come in until after the baby arrives. It's normal to have some leaking throughout pregnancy.


  2. the milk comes in a week or 2 after you have the baby dont worry this is normal and healthy for the little one when he or she comes

  3. Your b***s are supposed to leak this clear fluid (it is called colostrum)it is what comes out before the real milk matures.I am due in 1 week now and I still have that clear stuff leaking out(it will become a little more white looking as the pregnancy progresses).Don't worry,your milk will be fine for when you deliver your baby.

  4. dont worry!

    thats normal. in time it will be milk

  5. The clear stuff is colostrum...which is GOOD. This is what your baby needs before your milk comes in.  

  6. The clear stuff is completely normal, but it's not colostrum.  Colostrum is a thick yellow liquid.  What you're experiencing is a build-up from the extra estrogen in your system... A lot of people start that as early as 16 weeks.  Colostrum comes in later on... and your milk comes in around 3-5 days after your baby is born (the baby will nurse on colostrum for the first few days), though it is a little different for everyone.

  7. That clear stuff is colostrum it is what the baby eats for the first couple days after birth. It has all the antibodies and vitamins from your system which is really beneficial to the baby. So make sure you feed your baby at least this if you aren't breastfeeding. But your milk takes about 2 days to come in after the birth of your child. You will feel lumps in your b*****s that are really hard, these are your ducts filling with milk so don't think there is something wrong. Enjoy, bonding while breastfeeding is amazing.  

  8. It's colostrum and it is perfectly natural to start leaking it during pregnancy. Your milk will come in just fine once the baby starts to nurse. Just buy breast pads and wear them inside your bra and you'll be fine. Good luck!

  9. the clear stuff is the babies first meal. its very important that the baby has that. then your b*****s will start making milk.

  10. the stuff that's leaking now is colostrum. If you have that already u have NOTHING to worry about most new moms don't get that till acouple hour AFTER they give birth. The milk comes in a couple days later. Don't worry!!!! Also i'm 37 weeks with my 3rd i've had the colostrum leaking since about 24 weeks and let me tell you, you really want to buy some breast pads NOW!!! and start sleep with a bra and the breast pads on. Or your bed will get a wet spot

  11. After you have the baby. You don't get milk until you've delivered - usually a couple of days later.

    New babies don't require much nutirition for a few days.
