Breast discharge

i have noticed what appear to be little white heads on my nipples. It isn't acne (I had this during my teenage years just not this much). Is there something that can help it? I think it is probably just my body prepping to breastfeed but I worry it might lead to clogged ducts!

Re: Breast discharge

  • I have that and hate it.  >:P I also had it with my last pregnancy. It is your body getting ready for breastfeeding. I've never had a clogged duct from it. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

  • My understanding is that is part of your bodies way of keeping you nipples moisturized & I'm sure prepping for baby. I would doubt they would cause a clogged duct because the ducts are deep in the breast tissue. But if you are concerned you can always ask your OB. I am not looking forward to leaking in my sleep.
