Milk can come in before you have your baby. I'm 33 weeks and have milk already my Dr says its common because I breastfeed with my previous pregnancy. Everyone's body is different tho some woman don't leak at all.

Not everyone's breasts leak. And if they do before baby comes its colostrum whether its clear or whitish babies drink colostrum before milk. Milk comes in after baby comes and drinks the colostrum.

Your milk doesn't come in until after your baby is born what's in the breasts now is colostrum which will be your baby's first food when they are born so that's what is leaking out if your boobs now

Theres a clear liquid that starts leaking at about 18 weeks and at about 30 weeks or so the milk actually turns white. It's really painful but if you're really determined at breastfeeding you'll get through it.
