Miscarriage/Pregnancy Loss

Lactating

I am leaking small amounts of breast milk a week and a half after my loss at 8 weeks. Wth! I am (probably unreasonably) angry about this. Has anybody else had this after a first trimester loss?

Re: Lactating

  • Me! 

    But I have an almost 2 year old who was still nursing not too long ago. I was able to express milk prior to the loss so I'm not sure it's related. But I do understand the frustration of the uterus being empty and the rest of the body not getting the memo. 

    It all just sucks. There's not one part of it that's fun.

  • @jenmlangtake2 so true! It all just sucks!

  • What! Goodness I'm sorry. My boobs feel tingly, almost like they are letting down constantly. I didn't even attribute it to anything. I said to my husband "my boobs feel like when I had a newborn." I wonder if that's what's happening.
  • I too had the "let down" sensation while pregnant and soon after my loss, but no leaking. Our bodies are so unhelpful sometimes.
  • Yes i did. It took a weeks for it to go away. I was angry and frustrated with it too. Lots of pressure. It helped me.
