I'm getting closer to my due date, and I've started noticing some yellowish fluid from my breasts. I'm wondering if this is colostrum. What does colostrum usually look like during pregnancy?
I noticed a few drops of thick, yellowish sticky liquid on my bra around the 7th month. Since I had thyroid issues, I was super careful and asked my gynac during my next regular check-up just to be safe. She said it's totally normal colostrum, but always best to mention these changes during your routine follow-ups.
Beta, it is very thick and light yellow or clear, we call it first milk. If your chest feels heavy or itchy, just apply a little warm coconut oil gently after bath, don't squeeze or press it. Eat good nutritious ghar ka khana and stay relaxed.
Actually, my pregnancy tracker app had a whole article on this! It's usually thick, creamy yellow, or sometimes even clear and watery. The app said it can start leaking in the second or third trimester as your body prepares for breastfeeding.
Same here, I just started seeing some yellowish, slightly sticky spots on my bra this week. Is it supposed to leak a lot or just a few drops? I am in my 28th week now and thoda confused if this is normal.
Its mostly a thick, pale yellow or clear watery fluid, nothing to stress about. Honestly, dont waste money buying expensive breast pads for this stage, normal cotton hanky works fine. Better to save that cash for the actual delivery and hospital tests later on.
Wait, does this happen during pregnancy itself? I thought milk only comes after delivery, so learning this is actually so fascinating. Is it like super sticky or more watery?
Oh it looks like thick yellow gold! ✨ It's super thick and sticky, sometimes just pale yellow or whitish. Don't worry if u see a few drops on your t-shirt, your body is just getting ready for the baby! 🥰
