Consistancy Of Drying Up Breastmilk

I weaned my son about a month and a half ago. Now, what once was milk is thick and yellow, making me think it is colostrum and that I am pregnant again? Can someone tell me if the milk gets thick again as it dries up.

If I squeezed my nipple, I would see what I thought was colostrum for almost 2 years after b___stfeeding (then I got preg. again). It's perfectly normal :)

you may not be preg again. I read somewhere that before weaning your milk will get more and more like colostrum before tapering off. that's because the less your baby starts to take the more concentrated in antibodies your milk will be.. Hence giving it the appearance of colostrum.
