We had a breastfeeding mother with a 6 week old baby call us because she was
concerned that there was a clear gelatinous substance leaking from her
breasts. The mystery was solved when we discovered that she had run out of
breast pads and had cut up a disposal diaper to tuck in her bra. Some of
those diapers have a gel in them and this is what she was seeing. Just
thought I'd share in case any of you receive a similar call.
