    i had nothing at all while PG but had no problems BFing (well nothing other than new mum teething problems!) - i even panicked because i only ever leaked once after DS was born - i was waiting for milk to squirt everywhere but nothing!

    i think it'll be fine - once the baby feeds from a boob then it'll help stimulate milk production.

    ive been leaking since about 21 weeks and one side leaks freely (embarrassed me a few times when i felt a wet patch on my top!)
    but i have leaked with my last 2 pregnancies from one side more than the other but never had a problem with one side having milk and not the other.
    you might find one side lets down quicker or something but im sure you wont have any supply issues

    Lefty always leaked more then righty.

    Interestingly enough, I always got more milk out of lefty....
