During pregnancy, the breasts and body are ramping up for milk production. Most women don't actually start producing milk until the baby is born. Sometimes, however, women will make (and leak) colostrum, the first pre-milk substance that contains nutrients and antibodies. This is generally yellow to clear in color whereas breast milk looks like thin cow's milk.
