Galactorrhea: Galactorrhea or milk production after delivery is normal. Especially if had been breast feeding and stopped. Have you been having a menstrual cycle? Check a home pregnancy test, that can give you the answer quickly.

After...: It is not uncommon to have persistent breast discharge or milk production few months after having a baby. I assume you are not breast feeding if you are concerned about this. Sometimes you may have cramps due to the hormonal changes during the postpartum period as well. However, if you suspect you could be pregnant again I would suggest to go ahead an get a pregnancy test.

Prolactin: You are not that far from having a baby. I assume you are not breast feeding. However, you still can have some milk production from your elevated prolactin levels. It is possible to be pregnant again if you have resumed your menses. Probably worth checking a pregnancy test.
