Today my husband told me that lately when he is sucking on my breast, he has tasted something a little salty. Do you think that happened because he could have been sucking too hard? Could I possibly be pregnant? What do you think? Rolling Eyes

Hmm.. Well I dont know because I am pregnant, just over 4 months, and I didnt know anything can come out of ur nipples very early in pregnancy. I gues it could be possible tho cuz I dont know why else he would taste that. Have u ever had them peirced or anything? But I would say take a test anyhow. R u late for your period?

Love-
I have heard of discharge from nipples in women who are not pregnant. I don't know what causes it though. Sorry.

I have a son that is 5 and I still have milk and have not breast feed him since he was 2months old. The dr told me that this is normal and even some women who dont brest feed have had this happen. But of you think that you could be pg go get a test to find out. Hope this helps. My bf has told me the same thing at times about that.

If it is breast milk or colostrum (comes in before breast milk) it should not in the least bit be salty. They are both more n the sweet side exspecially colostrum.
