Witch's milk or neonatal milk is milk secreted from the breasts of some newborn infants. It is the result of the influence of the mother's hormones prior to birth. Witch's milk is only secreted by infants born at full term, and not by the breasts of prematurely-born infants. It normally resolves without treatment within one to two weeks after birth.
