Milk-like discharge from breasts for no apparent reason

And it's been 18 months since I last breastfed.

Oh, God am I pregnant?

If so, it will be thanks to a contraceptive accident 6 days ago. Could I be having a sort of "hysterical" symptom from being worried that I might be pregnant? Or could this be a symptom of the real thing? (And so early?)

How did you notice - did it come out of its own accord, or did you squeeze?

Sorry to be so crude, it's just that it's about the same amount of time since I breastfed, but I can still get a little bit out during boring moments in the bath. I could even have a good old squirt once - and I was convinced I was pg (I was trying at the time), but I wasn't. So maybe it's been there all along, but you've only just noticed. If not, I don't know (sorry!)

I still had milk up to 2 years after feeding, I wouldn't worry!

No, it was spontaneous. BUT ridiculously enough (now that I think of it) today I'm wearing an A-cup bra when I'm really a B (mistake at the shop), and the bra is producing a kind of squeezing like sensation. Anyway, it was a relief to hear that the discharge might always have been there, fisil--thanks for responding.
