>>Resting breastfluid (liquid capable of being expressed) is not nipple discharge. To be significant, nipple discharge needs to be a DISCHARGE: something you find spontaneously oozing out and staining clothes<< Maureen, Thank you for that clarification. You are absolutely right, though I've never heard the term "resting fluid" before; I certainly meant what could be expressed, and not a spontaneous discharge. Your comments on the different colors and other correlations is also fascinating; someone should publish some research on this! So much of my peripheral knowledge is anecdotal.......... -Lisa Marasco, BA, LLLL, IBCLC
