Very clear discharge from nipples...

It looks a bit like wee and tastes (cringe!) slightly salty.

Now I was under the impression that colostrum is thick and yellowinsh, and sweet tasting?

So, is this discharge normal? i get about 3-4 drops at a time. Am 27 weeks pg.

I had that too - I didn't get any colostrum until a couple of weeks before I had dd. As far as I know it's normal.

Colditz I get that too. |Have been squeezing my nips fastidiously to track what comes out, as I was still bf DD when I conceived so it changes colour every time I check!
