Ive just noticed that the areola part of my breast is an odd yellow colour(normally pink) is this normal in pregnancy?

Cant seem to find anything on google. It does looks very odd.

how many weeks are you? It could be collostrum/milk starting to be produced. Is it the flesh that looks yellow or could it be a light discharge? I have had this from about 18 weeks and now it builds up and goes crusty and brown (yuck) - at 29 weeks. I can't hold anyones' babies as I obviously smell milky and they immediately start rooting for my boob. Which is quite funny actually!

20 weeks, No discharge or anything just the flesh. Today they're looking slightly pale but normal again. Guessing its just a weird one off occurrence. :)
