I'm 14 weeks pregnant and I've had a cold for the past two months. Is it okay to use Otrivin nasal spray during pregnancy? I'm really concerned and would love to know if it's safe.

Good evening doctor, I'm currently six months pregnant and today I noticed something a bit unusual. There are a few drops of something leaking from my breast, and it happened both in the morning and again in the evening. I'm just wondering if this is normal or if it's something I should be concerned about. Could you help me understand why this might be happening?
