I'm in my second trimester and was wondering when my body starts preparing for feeding. Jab baby aayega toh usse pehle milk ban'na start ho jata hai kya?
Honestly, I panicked so much when I saw yellow stains on my bra in my second trimester. I thought something was wrong! But actually it was just early milk called colostrum, so don't feel scared.
Actually, colostrum production can start as early as the second trimester, but many women don't leak at all until after birth. Both situations are completely fine. Better to ask your doc once to clear your doubts.
Mere case me to 7th month me thoda colostrum leaking start hua tha. Ho na, I got so confused initially. Actually it varies for everyone, completely normal hai.
Mujhe yaad hai mai jab mummy ke ghar thi tab 8th month me baby shower ke time minor spotting jaisa fluid dekha tha. Mummy ne bola bilkul normal hai, body prepare ho rahi hoti hai.
Pls be careful and discuss this with your gynac during your routine checkup. In my case, I had early contractions so I had to be very careful with any breast changes. Gynac always knows best.
Technically, the body starts making colostrum around the 16th week of pregnancy. Don't worry if u don't see any leakage though, because hormones keep it in check until delivery. It's just normal physiology.
I totally understand how overwhelming all these new body changes can feel. For me, seeing those first few tiny drops made me feel so connected to my little prince. It's a beautiful sign that your body is prepping for your baby.
