Why is water coming out of my breast?

Question

I was doing my self breast exam today and noticed my nipples were very sore and i looked at them and saw water slowly coming out. What is this? I am TTC and all i think about is babies, i have heard before that you can leak when you want to be pregnant really bad but i never believed it. is that what happening?? sorry this is so weird.

Answer 1

I would take a pregnancy test to be sure as you can still have a period even though you're pregnant (my grandmother had one for 5 months before she knew she was pregnant!!)

I've also heard that some women just occasionally leak and its normal.  If it continues I would go to your Dr. to be sure everything is ok.

Answer 2

Well, breast glands are actually just modified sweat glands.  It not too uncommon for someone to just randomly leak.

My husband actually knew a guy who could squeeze his nipple and make milk come out at any time, not kidding!

Answer 3

Hmmm..are you sure you aren't pregnant?! If you're 100% sure you're not then I suppose it *could* be a psychological thing - not sure how common that would be though :) Maybe go to the Dr's anyway, but I dobt there's anything wrong with you except just maybe that long-waited for pregnancy...

good luck! :)

Answer 4

Answer 5

Yep..you can definitely be pregnant and still have your period...it happened to me!
