I have read that if your significant other does that it will increase the colostrum and milk process so tell him no more lol and that nipple stimulation is actually bad during pregnancy but I'm not sure!

I'm 37w4d and I had colostrum leaking from my breasts very early on. Some people's hormones are just different. Supposedly, it's not typical to get it early on (before third trimester), but it's also too get too worried about. Our birth coach/ lactational specialist comforted us by letting us know women who experience colostrum leaking early on are more likely to have a successful breastfeeding experience later. Invest in reusable breastpads now, it'll save you a fortune later. Then when your little one arrives, buy the disposables as you'll be producing a lot more!

I posted about this a few days ago . Its colostrum . It can be clear in color or more of a yellow gold color . Its perfectly normal . Try not to squeeze it out to much my doctor has told me it can cause pre term labor to start but thats with a lot not just a few drops so dont worry about that :) I was curious and squeezed it out you will be fine and baby . Its there first drink basically before milk it is very good for them and does a lot of good for them . Im 28 weeks . If you want you can look up colostrum . Its normal . It can come out during or after nipple stimulation or after intercourse . It really doesnt have a taste .

It's pre-milk, AKA, Colostrum. It's normal.

Not milk yet hun.
But colostrome I believe its called.
Its just getting ready.
I usually started getting it around 20 weeks.
But its entirely normal :)
Might have to get some breast pads so your bras do not get yucky.
