Early Lactation?

[drowning in boys]

Hello ladies! I am currently 9w as of today and my poor breasts have been in overdrive for weeks now! This makes baby #3 for me, but with my others no milk production or real breast growth happened until a week or so before delivery. My normally B cup bb's have skyrocketed to a C+ already and I have been needing breast pads for the past 3-4 weeks..

Anyone have any experience with this one pointing girl or boy?

I only got sore and bigger boobs in early pregnancy with my girl!

I had the same experience as Z. Honestly, my boobs seemed dead to the world after BFing my twins for 2 years, and with my pregnancy with ds3 my boobs never got sore. This time, though, my boobs got sore right near the beginning, and now at 20 weeks I still can't bear to have anyone touch them. They're also ginormous!

With DD1, HUGE from 8 weeks on and early leakage. With DD2, they didn't change at all; I really thought she was going to be a boy but she's my girliest girl yet, LOL. With DD3 they got big but not as early as they did with DD1.

FX it means girl for you

I had that with two of my boys. Pregnant with a girl now and so far no breast changes....

i am lactating when i press and squeeze..and i know that when i wasn't getting my BFP's i never lactated at all no matter how much i squeezed. i however cannot recal if i lactated with ds's. and i do remember clearly my boobs grew big with my DD1 at the beginning...with ds's i think they only grew much bigger and heavy in the pregnancy when i was near the end as they filled with milk. this time i feel they are heavy and bigger too early but not quite as much as with dd1 unless of course i totally forgot how much they grew this early on...hope though it is a pormising sign together with all other old wive's tale and signs.

Mine have grown just one cup size over the last 24 weeks.. But have been leaking since 22weeks. I'm having a boy!

My boobs only grew big and got sore with DD#1...never have had milk until late in my pregnancy.
