Umbilical cord and breast milk

How many weeks pregnant were you when your breast milk started leaking, and how many weeks did it take for your belly button to pop out?

    I think I had occasional drops of milk starting from around 24 weeks. By the end, I could also easily massage milk out.

    I don’t remember my belly button anymore. It just happened gradually.

    I had it suddenly last week too (also at 24 weeks). I enthusiastically told my partner that milk was coming out hahahaha.

    I started leaking milk at 17 weeks. And my belly button has also gradually popped out; I'm now 28 weeks and it's level with my belly, so to speak. It's not sticking out yet, but it's no longer a little dent either, just flat haha.

    I was over 20 weeks, and my belly button popped around week 30, but every body is different.

    Still no milk yet. I think it'll kick in once I've given birth.
    I do have a popping belly button though. From around week 15 it started coming out, and by week 26 it was already bulging out a bit. Now at 36 weeks, it's quite a bump on there.

    Never leaked any milk. And my belly button stayed in place nicely

    I only started leaking breast milk when my daughter was 4 days old, and my belly button never "popped."
