Hi all!
Just a question in the "am I normal?" category.   ;)


My LO and I weaned 5 months ago (he was 2.5).  I can still express milk from both breasts. Whassup? Anyone else had milk hanging around a long-ish time after weaning? It's not like I had a big supply when I weaned, or anything (we nursed two or three times a day).   Thanks for your input ladies!

When my ds1 weaned at 2.5( very slowly and gradually:only 2-3 times a week) I could still express a few drops of milk for about 5 months.  When I got pregnant again it dried up very early in the pregnancy.  I have heard that it is normal to continue making milk for several months after weaning.  You aren't abnormal!
