There may be engorgement of the breast of the newly born babies (boy or girl), due to passive transmission of the hormones from the mother, and may secrete few drops of milk. It is called witch’s milk and is normal. There are few people who tend to remove it by squeezing the breast. Such a practice is dangerous and may lead to pus formation and may need a small surgery to drain the pus. If left alone, breast engorgement will resolve by itself in 10-14 days.
