Your breasts will not start producing milk until you have delivered your baby.  The actual birth stimulates hormones which then causes production of milk.  Up until birth and for the first few days you will only produce colostrum which is more transparent.

usually the last trimester for leaking, and will come in fully closer to due date and delivery.. hot wat in the shower helps to relieve pressure, and it also helps to massage your breasts
