Could that be breast milk?

First of all, happy Easter everyone..

This morning when I woke, I got up to go to the washroom. Went back to bed and cuddled on my side and dosed of a bit. When I woke up again on my pyjama left side by my nipple it was wet.

Could that have been milk?

Yep. Or what is called colostrum. Most people don't start producing actual milk until later on.
Mine started around where you are. Used to wake up having soaked the bed sheets. I can't get comfortable wearing a bra and pads in bed so I took to wearing a vest top at night to contain the leaks. Smile

Yes, colostrum. I started producing it at 11 weeks with DD. Perfectly normal.
