I am having pre-milk leaking from my br___t and I am only 32 weeks along. Is this normal? Does this mean I could be in Labor any day now.?

Yes this is normal. Some suggest expressing a little once or twice a day if you plan to nurse. It may help the milk to come in sooner. I did but my milk didn't come in until my baby was 3 days old. I also read if you express too much it could put you into early labor. But don't worry. Your body is doing exactly what it is supposed to do.

Expressing colostrum can put you into early labor? I'll have to try that!!!! (I'm 38 weeks, so it's not really "early" but I'm impatient!) Jennie, I started leaking around...26 weeks? My doctor told me it's a good sign, and means you'll have plenty of milk for your little one.

totally normal. and sadly, no. it doesn't mean labor is right around the corner. you don't need to express it, your milk will come in anyways. (3-4 days after delivery is the norm.) b___st stimulation can bring on labor and cause STRONG contractions... proceed with caution. :o)
