So I have had slight leaking from about 13weeks which I thought was rediculous but yesterday things just got a whole heap worse.
I leaked all over the place and am now having to use breast pads. Will it settle down again or is this how its going to be from here on out?  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

| Once I started leaking that it, needed to wear breast pads for the rest of the pregnancy. Some days were worse than others though |

Yep sorry but I had to wear breast pads from when I started leaking. At first it was just at night then it picked up.
The plus side is I had a great milk supply when Rowan was born. Probably cold comfort to you right now though. -------------

I started leaking just before 16 weeks... and had to wear breastpads from then on as well. Had to wear bras at night so I wouldn't leak everywhere  but it does mean that you will most likely have a great milk supply  ------------- Chloe (4 years) and Oliver (3 years). |

Yep - me too. Having to wear a bra at night was horrible but it saved waking up wet & sticky from leakage. I had a fantastic milk supply - almost too much - and also found that I could express heaps and easily too much to the envy of my mum friends. ------------- http://lilypie.com">  [/url http://lilypie.com">

I havent had leaking breasts yet I hope thats not a bad thing.....Ive tried squeezing but nothing seems to come out, plus my nipples are quite tender at the moment.
