Re-lactation?

I didn't know where to put this (here? breastfeeding?). Just wondering if anyone had any experience with re-lactation of the unwanted variety? I stopped BFing DD#2 in June last year (2012). But last night, Hubby and I were fooling around and by the time we were done, I had milk again. WTH?! He was touching me gently but he wasn't sucking on them like a baby or anything. I wasn't thinking about breasfeeding at all (not until after when I felt the milk). It's not a drama as it isn't much milk by the feel of it (a little squeeze and some comes out - I daren't squeeze too much, I don't want to encourage it). I'm just wondering how long this kind of thing goes on?

Sorry for TMI - I think if I squeezed after BF my last child there was still something there after about 8 or 9 months. I think by 12 months there was nothing.
