The above answer is incorrect. Breast milk does not develop or begin to flow until after delivery, often several days after delivery.
The mammary glands are blood-rich. Anywhere there is increased blood flow, the body part will feel hotter.
As examples:
During sex, blood rushes into the pelvis. The sexual organs (penis, vagina) feel "hotter".
When you cut your finger, within a day it feels warmer. Increased blood flow brings in macrophage cells. Macrophage cells come to clean up the wound inside the body. The increased blood flow plus the activity of the macrophage cells make the area feel hotter.
