Toddlers: 12 - 24 Months

Have not breast fed in 51/2 months, why am I leaking?

My right breat was sore so I looked down and touched it.  A little liquid came out.  I last breast fed on March 15th. Has this happened to anyone else? I am wondering WTF is going on???

  • I haven't BF since December and both of my breasts still lactate. I was a little concerned too, so I asked the doc and he said it's normal.

  • Are you taking any medicine?  This happened to me when I was taking a medicine that caused my prolactin level to rise.  However you should tell your doctor.  It could also be a prolactinoma with is a tumor ( the great great great majority of the time is benign) on your pituitary gland.
  • okay thanks for sharing I figured it was okay just a little strange

  • I know someone who still leaks and she hasn't BFed in 3 YEARS. She had a big oversupply when she was nursing though.
