Colostrum at 18wks???

[hopeful*]

Hi girls- (warning TMI)

So today i was just having a feel around, checking boobies for changes etc...
Anyway, when i squeezed my nipple, little dots of yellow and clear liquid seeped out!!
I have heard this yellowish clear liquid is called colostrum however im wondering can it be coming in this early?
Has anyone else had this?

Yep, I've had it from about 16weeks or so

I leak quite a bit now, not enough to go through my clothes but its annoying all the same. I need to invest in some breast pads I think

I usually get it around 17 weeks but got it at 24 weeks with this bub. It is perfectly normal to get it at 18 weeks. Enjoy your new change to your body

i started leaking at around 20 wks.. mostly when i squeezed but sometimes would wake up with stains on my shirt

Yep normal, I had it from 14 weeks. lol. It got really heavy towards the end, wearing a bra helped but I also needed breast pads right at the end.

Yep with this pregnancy i had it from 15weeks onward

oh great thanks girls! Nice to know im not the only "early starter" haha... not sure how to tell DH his wife is ..leeking... might just let him figure it out on him own haha

My LC said to be careful expressing too early, as it can lead to some contractions. She's got me not expressing 3 times / day and collecting & freezing it.

i actually posted the same thing as you when i was around this time! lol its completely normal. i remember i was freaking out because i thought i remembered reading somewhere that it was a sign of m/c. but my little squish is still here and so is the colostrum!
