Hello dear,I understand your concern.In my opinion discharge from breasts start in pregnancy around 12 weeks.So it is too early to feel any pregnancy symptoms.The discharge might be due to hormonal imbalance or the patch effect.If the period is
delayed by more than 2 weeks do a urine pregnancy test and consult your doctor.
Best regards...Dr.Srilatha
