20 weeks & occasionally (tmi)

leaky boobs. assuming this is totally normal but this early? sometimes its just dried fluid on my nipples and sometimes my shirt is wet. Ughh...more of a complaint than anything. Any way to make it stop? Or am I just stuck til baby is here and weaned off?

It's here to stay and totally normal.

Get some breast pads (cloth ones are great and reuse able!)

Probably will go away when your milk supply regulates at a few weeks PP. I leaked constantly til 2-3 weeks (and until 4 months if I missed a feeding) but nursed him LONG after that---most women don't leak the whole time

That's what I figured haha but thanks I have some disposable sample breast pads currently...have reusable on my registry but tgat won't be til my baby shower...might have to cross it off lol Oh the joys of motherhood  

I leaked from 28the weeks with my first until my second was 3!!! Now im breatgeeding again (second is almost 4) lol

With my son I leaked from 16 weeks

Totally didn't plan on dealing with this so soon haha good to know I'm not the only one whose exp. this this early. Hopefully it means breastfeeding will be easier ;) probably just wishful thinking

Have you breastfed before?

Hi ladies,
I have been trying to find so where to freak out and I found this forum. I have PCOS and never have a regular monthly, I have been having some strange symptoms lately that i put down to working to hard and the heat coming into summer. But 2 weeks ago when I started to get that funny butterfly feeling I knew I needed to go to the doctor.
Today I visited the doctor and she has said that she thinks that I may be about 20 weeks pregnant! Waiting for blood test results to come back as the urine tests that I have done at home and the one that the doctor did have all been negative.
I have a 22 month old son already, thank goodness or I have no idea how long it would have taken me to work out what was going on.
I am plus sized so don't really look pregnant. I have put on 7 kg in the last 4 months and I thought that I was just eating too much.

I got mine at 13 weeks. Lol and it was bloody that scared me.
They said it was really early. But normal for the most part.

No. Second pregnancy but the first ended at 6 weeks.

mine started really early to, i thouit was weird because all my friends said that theirs didnt start until 8 months, i hate it sometimes i wake up and my shirt is soaked, it makes my boobs itchy and its super annoying. and the pads that you can get to put in your bra just made my boobs 100x more itchy.
