Help me please in need of some answers from acknowledged mothers!

I am currently 39 weeks and bby is not here yet this is my first pregnancy so I'm new to all this! I have my next dr apt this Tuesday and it's my first weekly apt I am 2 weeks away from my due date which is May 4th. I'm worried should I be leaking any colostrum from my breast? Im asking cause idk is this normal I haven't leaked anything neither did my breast grow? I'm a 38C I did feel lots of breast tenderness and my breast hurt a lot through out my pregnancy but still no growth or colostrum should I be worried! Please help me in need of some answers!

Fenugreek is an herb that can be made into tea that will encourage your body to start producing milk, it's used in instances when a mother's milk would dry up... my gran told me about it with my first, you should Google it

You can try fenugreek after the baby is born if you want to bring your milk in

It's normal not to leak any colostrom. I had no clue about breastfeeding till I had my first baby. They made me nurse asap but I was so confused cuz I literally just had him and he was already "rooting" after my ta tas lol but as soon as the baby's born it comes in. And believe me nobody told me your milk comes in around the 3rd or 4th day. My boobs got huge then. But it never did leak before giving birth.  Hope this eases your mind ;)
