Waking up to some breast discharge 28w

Anyone else been waking up to some crusty breast discharge? It’s not every day and looks like just a drop or two and usually only from one breast or another. A Google search says it’s normal but I’m just curious as to how many of us are actually experiencing this.

Edit: when I say crusty, I mean that’s how it dries on my shirt, I don’t actually know how it looks before it dries as it happens during sleep.

I’ve started leaking when having a bath x

I’m 30w I noticed this when I was around 26w, now it only seems to happen when babies cry or when I’m in the bath and they get warm. It’s usually like a clear, slightly yellow in colour but dries really yellow. Not sure if yours is the same. My midwife said it was completely normal and to wear breast pads if it’s a lot or I feel uncomfortable x

I'm exactly the same as you. Started at 28 weeks. Doesn’t happen every day just ever now and again. Started using breast pads.

I started leaking at around 23/24 weeks - ill be 28 weeks tomorrow x started as just a drop here and there and now I have to sleep in a bra with breast pads as if my breasts are pressed by my arm or pillow or anything whilst sleeping/any time of day I am leaving little puddles of yellowish colostrum x Midwife says its completely normal and actually a good sign x she's not worried about the quantity either as im expecting twins so its my body's way of preparing to feed 2 babies x

Real Life Hospital Bag Needs

Hey lovely moms! I’m 36 weeks now and I’m trying to get everything together 😂

What is ACTUALLY needed in the hospital bag? I’m sick of seeing all the social media influencers and what they bring.

I imagine clothes for a few days, unsure if i bring pads and such? Also, I plan on exclusively pumping so do I bring my breast pump with me? I see some people do, and some people don’t.

Any advice helps, thank you ♡

Water broke!!

Guys my water just broke and I’m wondering how I should go about feeling baby’s movements?? I was gonna go to sleep and realised my water broke and haven’t felt baby move since (maybe 1 hour) how normal or abnormal is it? Called the hospital and they told me to try and sleep and come in the morning to get checked if nothing has happened until then
