Yes it is colostrum, and yes its normal.
Some women start lactating in their first trimester, especially those who have had other children.
Perfectly normal. Wear some nursing pads.

Colostrum can begin leaking at any point in pregnancy. Some women leak early on, others not until late in pregnancy. Some women never leak. Any of this is normal and any of these mothers can breastfeed successfully.
Yes, that does sound like colostrum, the first milk, which is thicker, sticky, goldish/clearish and super packed with immunities.
Just get some nursing pads to wear in your bra as colostrum can stain your clothing.

Absolutely - with my first I leaked colostrum from about 37 weeks too, and with my second it started at 27 weeks!!
No worries, it's completely normal, just your body getting ready to feed your baby!
Congrats!
