Is Discharge From Breasts Long After Stopping Breast Feeding Normal?

I can squeeze small amount of white liquid out of my breasts and I currently have my period - has been a light flow for 3 days. I have a 2 yr old son that I breastfed for 12 weeks and have not noticed any milk since I stopped breastfeeding. Is this normal?
