Lactating and have never breastfeed

I have a ten  month old baby and a six year old.  In both pregnancys I began to lactate in the 2nd trimester and did not dry up until the babies were almost 3 months.  I was unable to breastfeed due some medications I am on.  Yesterday, out of now where one breast leaked what looked like colosterum.  I was wondering if this is hormaones or a possible side effect of one of my meds??!!

Cool.  My NP called me back yesterday and said it was probaly nothing to worry about just a gland that had a little left.  She also said with rocking my baby while she was fussing could have triggered it.

I still had milk in my breast for over 8 months after I stopped breastfeeding my baby.

Go to your Gynecologist and get a mammogram.
