Question

Some women notice leaking from their nipples during pregnancy, and this is normal.� In pregnancy, the breasts may start to produce milk weeks or months before you are due to have your baby. If�your nipples are leaking,�the substance is usually colostrum, which is the first milk your breasts make in preparation for feeding your baby. Leaking is normal and nothing to worry about. If it bothers you, you can try putting a tissue or an absorbent breast pad (sometimes called maternity breast pads, or nursing pads) in your bra to absorb the milk. Breast pads are available in some pharmacies and mother and baby shops.

Hi lybrate-user
Your breasts are getting ready for feeding the baby. It is normal. Do not express or squeeze them. Use a breast pad if it it too much or staining your clothes. If you feel any pain in abdomen, go see the doctor.
