Weird thing - BF related

So I was saying to DH the other day that I thought my boobs had finally stopped producing way too much milk, and it was just enough for LO.  (I used to wet shirts with breast pads in my bra...not fun) So I went to baby bio yesterday, and nope, I had a wet shirt by the end of it.  Could it have been my motherly instinct or something being around all of those other babies?  Has anyone else experienced when you are around a lot of kids, you make more milk?

    When I was pregnant and worked in the newborn nursery for the semester I would leak like crazy. I haven't been around many children other than LO since she was born but I imagine it would still happen. My sister has been EBF for over 8 months now and she leaks more around my LO and also when she is away from her baby but talks about her o thinks about her. It's funny/interesting!

    I have heard of this happening. My mom used to do daycare and it always would happen to her. I EP and I know that if I think about LO, or even when I watch her bottle feed, I will start to leak. Our minds and bodies work together in funny ways.

    It's funny because right after Xander was born when we were still in the hospital he was soo cute, hardly cried the two days but the baby next door or across the hall or wherever she was would cry every couple hours and without a doubt as soon as she would start crying I would leak REALLY bad. Now I have a recording of Xander on my phone that is like 3 seconds long of him crying and when I'm trying to pump I play it a couple times and sure enough the milk comes-a-flowing.

    But yes.. I have noticed the more babies I'm around, the fuller they seem to get/leak more :)
