Secondary IF

Ok ladies this threw me for a loop!

Quick background, I stopped breast feeding in June 2013 and I am now on my third round of drugs to help with follicle production and ovulation. (2 of clomid that had little to no effect and this is my first round of femera)
This cycle showed two good follicles (18&19) and one ok follicle (16) on 13 day ultrasound. Progesterone at 5 DPO (6 days after +OPK) was 22.
So today is 9dpo and I got a BFN this morning and then I'm sitting on the couch and my arm was resting over my boob and I felt something wet. I thought that it was my imagination but nope! I am leaking from my boob! Just the left one. Anybody else ever experience this?

  • You could still have a little bit of milk left. It took me a long time to 100 % dry up. It took my friend close to a year to stop leaking.

  • Yea, I'm with KC. This never happened to me because my milk never fully came in in the first place, but I've read a ton of stories about this happening on my BMB. 

    I don't think the progesterone has anything to do with it, if that's what you're wondering? All that is indicating is that you ovulated. 

    I wouldn't stress it.

  • I leaked off and on for a year after weaning DD. It had no rhyme or reason and was never actually enough to soak through my bra or shirt. Just a little dime sized wet spot here and there. My OB said it was completely normal. I mentioned it to my RE at my initial appt because I thought it might mean I had something hormonally wrong. He said it would be hard to tell because he didn't have my lab numbers from that time but that some women who have prolactin issues can leak.

  • Ok thanks! I had never heard of this happening so good to know I'm not alone but my RE tested my prolactin levels between when I stoped breast feeding and when I started the clomid and said labs were normal

  • That would throw me, too! I never leaked after weaning, but DS weaned slowly so by the time we were done he was only comfort nursing at night anyway and I was pretty dried up.
  • It's perfectly normal for over a year! Crazy huh!
