I copied and pasted this for you..

Some women do notice a discharge from their nipples. It is normal and healthy — it's the body's way of keeping the nipple ducts open. It even happens to some guys.

The discharge may look like very thin milk, or it may be clear or light green, greyish or light yellow.

Women who take birth control pills may have this discharge. It can happen during sexual arousal and at certain times in the menstrual cycle.

It is important to keep nipples clean by washing with warm water and soap so the discharge won't dry and build up.

If the discharge changes, has pus or blood in it, or if it is brownish in color, visit your clinician — this change may be a symptom of an infection.

Hope this information helps

go to doc and have your prolactin levels checked, and lactation is natures own birth control, this is what happened to me from dec06-feb07, and that was exactly what my doc told me!

I'm gunna be 17 weeks tomorrow, and only my milk buds on my nipples started turning white but you can only see it if you look up real close, I haven't started leaking at all yet.

If you don't even know you're pregnant yet, and even if you are...
you're way too early to be showing ANY symptoms atall.

Everyone I know that's pregnant, or has been pregnant, including myself hadn't started experiencing symptoms till about 6-8 weeks into the pregnancy.
Your hormones haven't had anywhere NEAR enough time to get your body in any reaction besides not letting your have your period.

If you're leaking from your nipples, that could be a sign of a health problem, and you should contact your doctor asap because that's NOT good.

I never leaked until AFTER I had my baby. I would contact your doctor because leaking from your breasts isn't normal if you are in early pregnancy/maybe not pregnant at all and something could be wrong.

I am currently about 32 weeks pregnant and I have just recentally began having a leaking from my nipples. It normally dosnt begin until the very end of the 2nd trimester or the beginning of the 3rd trimester.
