As a babysitter I have to care for a 4 week old baby,

I am myself a mother of 3 month old boy,..Whenever I try to feed this baby with a milk bottle,I feel this weird letdown.

Yesterday when I was cuddling the baby, I found my shirt wet.

I do not understand what is happening with me ?

  1. you have to wear breastpads to catch the leaking.

    youhave done nothing wrong.  it;s actually very natural


  2. When did you stop breast feeding your baby?

    Wear the breast feeding pads. This way even if you leak a little it won't go through your clothes.  I have heard that the gel and/or silicone pads help to you to slow down.  

  3. You won't get fired for having milk letdown.  The mother of the 4 week old also has them.  Whether she's breastfeeding or not, it happens.  If you're nursing your own child, then you probably already know about breast pads.  You can get them in the baby products aisle at the grocery.

  4. Are you breast-feeding your boy?  The 4-week old cries are probably stimulating your let-down mechanism.  The only thing for it is to wear nursing pads.
