Boobs still leaking milk (not breast feeding)

[jennifer1981]

My LO is 5 weeks old and is bottle fed. My breasts are still leaking milk every now and again. Shouldn't this have stopped by now?

It can take quite a while for your milk to completely dry up. Your bodys hormones are still going into overdrive. Gradually it will get less and less until it completely stops.

Hi my LO is nearly 13 weeks and i have been bottle feeding for about 11-12 weeks and i still get the occasional few drops of milk leak from my boobs i can tell its slowly drying up tho as its getting less and less gradually. its not really something iv worried about as it will stop sooner or later although iv found in the past when i was on the pill that my boobs leaked the whole time i took it everyones bodies are different and do things in different timescales and in different ways
