A member asked:
I am 21 weeks.my breast leaking.is it safe in pregnancy time?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Generally yes: It is common for colostrum and milk to leak during pregnancy. It can come on its own or be stimulated by sex play for example. If you find you are starting to have uterine contractions with increasing pain and frequency (which can happen because of Pitocin (oxytocin) from your brain causing milk letdown) check with your doctor. Any masses or lumps or bloody or other color discharge should be checked out!
