Boobs leaking???

FTM who just turned 22 weeks today. Last night my right boob was pretty sore with sharp pains to my nipple. I noticed I had a clear sticky fluid (not much) coming out of it. I’m assuming it’s colostrum. It dried up over night so it’s just kinda crusty now without anymore leakage, although I’m still having the sharp pains. Has anyone else experienced this so early? I thought you weren’t supposed to start leaking until 36ish weeks??? Also wasn’t expecting it to be painful😅 I guess I’m just trying to figure out if I need to go see my OB for it or if it’s normal

My OB and midwives all said colustrum may start leaking around 16 weeks and beyond so you’re totally on track and this is normal.

Mine started at 17 weeks a Lil uncomfortable lol

My right boob started leaking yesterday during a nap. I didn't have any sharp pains, though.

i started around 19 weeks, and i leak pretty much every night. i just wear nursing pads to sleep now.

I've been leaking a little here and there my ob said not to stimulate yet and to wear absorbing pads if it was making me uncomfortable

Mine started around 16 weeks and I get those pains in my boobs too, but I don’t have much feeling in my nipples due to having a breast reduction years ago. I’m 24 weeks now! 🥰💗
