Question bout lactating?

Question

i had to have an abortion in early february (my reason are my own so don't ask), i'm still lactating a little bit. mm, i think that's the right word. anyway, i was just wonderin how long do woman usually 'leak' colostrum after a pregnancy is over?

Answer 1

When you say "leak", do you mean from engorgement, or you can express a little.  It's normal to express a little for up to a year sometimes.  But if your b*****s are full of milk and spraying/leaking out, you might want to get a hold of an herbalist.  If your other baby is still nursing, you'll have colostrum for months sometimes.

Answer 2

i would say wait a couple of months, i had a micarriage at 16 weeks and i originally had no signs of colostrum, but after i lost the baby, i needed a partial abortion and i started leaking...it lasted for 3 months, im guessing ur bodys a little confused as mine was, but ask ur doc, cuz if its an issue, and ur not breastfeeding ur other child, there are medications to stop the lactation process

Answer 3

How close were you to your due date? Most women don't start to leak colostrum until long after a safe time for an abortion.
