Leaking breasts, is it a good sign?

Question

I am really really wanting to breast feed but I've been kind of worried I won't be able to produce milk. I am currently almost 31 weeks pregnant and my breasts are just now starting to leak a few drops. 
Is this a sign I might be able to breast feed? Are there any signs or is it random basically?

Answer

It's a good indication that you likely won't have a problem. Most women who "can't" breastfeed have other factors going on, such as a bad patch or a tongue-tied baby. Just remember, your milk won't come in right away, it can take about week in some cases.

Answer

I've never leaked, I'm on my third and successfully breastfed two babies so far. I think you'll be just fine 😊

Answer

I've heard whether you leak or not is not an indication of whether you will be able to breastfeed successfully, or even that your supply will stay up. I can't help but hope though. I started leaking at 23 weeks, I'm 35 weeks now and have to wear breastpads everyday. Produce milk! Produce!
