I am seven months pregnant with my first child. I have not noticed any colostrum leaking from my breasts yet. She is a Board Certified Lactation Consultant, as well as a retired La Leche League Leader.
Pregnancy is a wonderful time, but it sure can bring with it a lot of worries.
You can put this particular concern to rest. The absence of milk leaking from your breasts does not indicate any problem whatsoever. Beginning around the second trimester of pregnancy, your breasts begin producing colostrum, that remarkable first milk for your baby that is loaded with immune boosting properties. Even if you haven't yet seen it, it's there. When you put your baby to your breast soon after the birth she will enjoy her first taste.
