Itchy nipples and colostrum?

Breanna
Okay guys so I'm 24 weeks pregnant and I've been producing colostrum since like 18 weeks. My nipples itch SO BAD sometimes and I've found the only way to relieve the itching it to squeeze some of the colostrum out (which my poor boobs are like a faucet! Lol) is anyone else experiencing this? Is it okay to do this?? I cant believe the amount of colostrum I'm producing i thought this didn't happen til later?
