Some questions....

May 01, 2008

I am only 18w5d prego. i found out i was prego on Feb. 1. Since I have found out I've had colostrum leaking out of my boobs. Is that normal? i have spots on the inside of my bras from where it leaks out and at night my tshirts get so wet on the inside from where it leaks out. It seems constant. Is there anything I can do about it? I also have really bad pain I guess you would call it in the low abdomen area and up a little. Is that normal too? And I have gained weight to where I can't fit into my regular clothes anymore but I'm not big enough for maternity clothes. Does anybody have any suggestions to where I can get clothes for the in between stage without having to spend a fortune?

Look at these things called bella bands- someone on here told me about those...

I think the pain is normal- its like stretching- and I know others have said they are leaking! I know they sell little pads for bras- maybe you could get some of those to save from getting wet or ruining bras :)

Good luck, and Congrats ;)

Some other women also posted about colustrum leaking from the breasts during pregnancy, Im not a Dr but..since this seems to be a common occurance it could be normal. Have u tried using disposable breast pads?

Reg weight gain, looks like u are like me..I had gained weight to the point my regular clothes were tight, but not ready for maternity until week 23. If u are talking about regular casual wear, you can try a larger size, I ended up getting size large instead of maternity. also, in maternity clothing, u end up getting the same size as ur pre pregnancy wear and that would last quite a bit. My maternity jeans that I got at week 23 works great for me now at full term and it doesnt cost a fortune. Theres some sale or clearance all the time.
