Leaky boobs - how long?

mrse1107 · November 2008

Ive been FFing since day 2 for DS - and obviously went through engorgement, needing breast pads etc... but we're going on 5 weeks here - and last night I decided I would sleep w/o a bra or sleeper bra because I wasn't leaking anymore. Ehhhhhhhhh wrong. Not too much leakage, but enough that the sleeper bra is going back on.

How long will they continue to leak?

I can go without pads during the day now but at almost 6mos, I still get engorged and still leak almost every night. Love BF but am looking forward to getting control over the girls again!

mine leaked for like 8 weeks and i ff from day 1!

i remember getting out of the shower around 5 weeks when they "weren't leaking anymore" and i bent down to pick up my clothes and squirt! sorry tmi!

i wore bras and pads 24/7 for 8 weeks though

i always wear pads... i don't leak as much as i used to but when i'm nursing and the let-down occurs, the other side that she's not feeding off of leaks.
