Leaking nipple

[~Hestia~]

Hi girls, firstly I apologise if this is in the wrong forum! I couldn't decide if it was breastfeeding, conception, postnatal or what! So please feel free to move it elsewhere

Last night I was doing the dishes and felt wet in the boob area, wasn't wearing a bra and could see wet patch on my pj top. Had a look and one of my nipples was leaking not quite clear fluid, was basically dripping like when DS was newborn. If I squeezed more came out and it looked almost yellowy.

I haven't breastfeed DS for almost 4 weeks so I am surprised at this. I never tried seeing if there was anything there since he weaned, but today I can still get liquid out if I squeeze.

Is this normal? I am TTC so am also wondering if it's an early pregnancy sign

Okay, now I feel like a leaking weirdo

No real advice, but I didn't want you to be a leaking weirdo!

I would say it is normal to leak even after weaning. I know a woman who never breastfed, who started leaking when her baby was 1.

Maybe it is a hormone change thing though, so count down till you poas.

For the recod I haven't leaked since DD was a newborn, and I'm still feeding her (and pg).

Yep, I think it's totally normal to still have fluid there, especially as it's only been 4 weeks.
I have noticed on occasions before I get in the shower there'll be a tiny bit of fluid on my bra (probably from being cold after getting undressed and nipples contracting etc! Sorry if TMI!), and P weaned almost 3 months ago.
Not a leaking weirdo at all Maybe you were having subconscious baby thoughts and you had a letdown...?

LOL thanks girls! Phew
Don't remember what I was thinking about but it very well could've been babies! Ah just love the TWW...

It is interesting though how you can still have milk after weeks and months.
