Think I might be preganant, but really confused to what is happening to me. This would make my second child. My breasts are really sore and enlarged, which could happen even if I were getting ready to get my period, but I am now 4 days late and my breasts are leaking colostrum. I have taken 2 pregnancy tests, both saying negative. But if I was, I would be early in pregnancy and just confused to why I would be leaking colostrum and getting a negative result? Can someone produce colostrum and not be pregnant? Has this ever happened to anyone else before?

Yes, it happens... especially after having had a child. Hormone changes in general can cause it, as well as pregnancy. Give your period another week or so to show up. Take another test at that time if necessary or you could wait until your next period is due and check then.

If you find that you are not pregnant, check with your doctor if it continues. Some situations that can cause it can make becoming pregnant more difficult if you were to decide you wanted another child.
