The Waterfall Effect

[Taedareth]

My baby seems to think it's really fun to nurse for a minute until my milk lets down, then pop off and let the milk spray everywhere :eyesroll

Samara does that and then I aim the spray into her mouth, so it's like a water fountain. :lol

[amis2girls]

My lap and her shoulder are always soaked. :lol

LMAO!!!

That's too funny! Drew has only done that once, and the milk sprayed all over his face. Poor little guy.

Luka does that, too. I keep a diaper under his chin for that purpose. It goes on for a long time, too! I have so much milk it's ridiculous. Thank god it's gone down some, but I still have to pump in the middle of the night to relieve engorgement (my toddler sleeps all night, and Luka only takes one boob per feeding).

Daphne does that too. I have super letdown and the poor thing chokes and chokes so I am actually glad when she lets go cause its better than seeing her choke and gag. It does end up everywhere though, in her neck fat, in her eye, up her nose.....I swear her head is so soft from all the ebm getting sprayed on it. My pant leg is always wet too from my boob dripping all over it. Pretty sad when your boob hangs so long it drips right into your pant leg. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA :lol

LLL info (http://www.lalecheleague.org/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=143) that might help.

Yup, we get that at every feeding. I am just waiting for Caden to realize he likes my super let down and milk supply. I also use a prefold to catch the milk, if not I would literally be soaked in milk 24/7. I had to do the same thing with #1. After the first month or so he loved the super let down and he would fuss waiting for it to happen. #2 also only nurses off one side still.
