30 weeks and no colustrum
Is this normal? I have nothing...my boobs haven't even grown and are not sore. I really want to try and breastfeed but now I'm scared I won't produce milk. Shouldn't I be leaking something around this time?

Nope. Don't worry about a thing. I never leaked before the baby was born and have been breastfeeding successfully for over 10 months! Just feed the baby on cue and get help if you need and you'll be fine!

Re: 30 weeks and no colustrum
I had no leaking and my boobs did not get bigger and I'm not going to lie, I did have supply issues but I was able to BF/pump for 7 months.
ETA: I wanted to say that this isn't proof you'l l have a problem. I just wanted to say that I did but still plugged through it.

I never leaked during pregnancy and then breastfed my daughter for 26 months with no problems. No worries!

Re: 30 weeks and no colustrum
I never leaked and have been BF'ng for 19 days now. I had to pump a bit and I get 2-4 ounces per pumping session so my supply is there.
I wouldn't worry at all - believe me when the milk comes in you'll certainly know it.

Re: 30 weeks and no colustrum
I didn't get Colunstrum until after the baby was born and I think not until day two. Milk didn't come in until 2-3 days afterwards. Don't worry - the birth will spark all that AND the size of your boobs doesn't mean anything about milk production....trust me.

I am 34 weeks and haven't leaked at all. Not everyone does, I wouldn't worry about it.

Re: 30 weeks and no colustrum
I was just wondering about this - I am 37 weeks and have had no leaking at all. I was worried about whether it might be a sign of future problems with BFing.
Thank god for the Search feature on these boards!!!
Thanks, ladies!
