Answer

Your milk will not come in for 2-4 days after you give birth.

Any leaking before that is colostrum, basically pre milk that is filled with all the nutrients baby needs until your milk comes in.

Some women start leaking at 12 weeks, others later, and some none at all. It's important to never squeeze or express any out yourself. If it comes out on its own, that's fine.
I started leaking some around 18 weeks I think.

Answer

I'm 35 weeks today and no leaking. If I squeeze a little, a very little clearish liquid comes out, but I mean like a drop. A lot of woman don't have anything until the baby is born. And for the first few days after baby is born, it's not milk, it's like a thick yellowish liquid. I would honestly tell her to stop asking  you, it's going to make for a long pregnancy!!

Answer

With my first a couple days after birth second some leaking at the end of pregnancy and engorgement a day after birth (she was a great nurser milk came in fast) this is my third pregnancy and breast are fully feeling like I need to nurse but my second weaned a month before I got pregnant I wouldn't try to express milk I'm sure it hurts and it's not necessary your body knows what it's doing and will have milk when you need it 😊

Answer

My doctor told me NOT TO "stimulate"  
Your nipples because that can bring on contractions an put you in labor, but it also can bring your baby's heart rate down.. So no squeezin those nips, especially that early. 
Also, I'm 33 weeks and still don't "leak" so it just determines on your body.
