First--this is completely normal
second--she could even expell colostrum,
and or blood from it. This is also
normal
third---do not press on it
excessively--could cause her pain, and
prevent it from expelling the fluid that
might be in it.
Fourthly---this can and does also happen
in boys--right after birth
