Leaking From the Nipples during pregnancy - Symptoms and Treatment

As your body starts to prepare you for childbirth, your breasts will go through a considerable number of adjustments to gear up for feeding your baby.


It is entirely typical for your breasts to leak the newly developed breast milk a bit during the third trimester of your pregnancy. The process is identified as Colostrum.


The first batch of breast milk is not similar to the regular breast milk, consists of several nutritious proteins, and is trouble-free for your little one to digest during the first few days of its birth.


Many pregnant women will observe continuous leaks, whereas others would not leak at all – although both the conditions are entirely normal.


Nevertheless, if you notice signs of blood in the fluid or are suffering from severe pain or any other obnoxious symptom, we would suggest you talk to a doctor soon.

What leads to leaking nipples when pregnant?

From your sixteenth week of pregnancy and beyond, your body will begin producing milk to feed your baby. Milk produced for the first time during pregnancy is known as Colostrum, which is rich in protein and contains less sugar and fat levels than the regular breast milk.


The breast milk is much easier for the baby to digest and it is full of antibodies that assist in making your baby's immune system stronger during the first few days following its birth. After this duration, your body will start to generate regular breast milk.


There are numerous products such as absorbent and wet breast napkins you can purchase in order to tackle the leaks for short time durations. These could be easily found at specialist shops and pharmacies.


It is completely fine for some women to observe leaking Colostrum from breasts while pregnant and should not be worried about. In a few cases, pregnant women can rouse the process by tenderly pressing the skin around the areola.


In an unfortunate scenario when you find traces of blood within the leaking fluids, or you are experiencing pain along with the leaks, do not waste time – consult a GP online right now.
