STILL lactating
« on: June 01, 2008, 20:29:14 pm »
I finished nursing DS and was preggo within 6 wks...so I don't know if this would've happened...but I am still lactating from nursing DD. It's been 10ish months...Should this still be happening? I'm "afraid" of google.... :-[

TIA Marie

I never stopped being able to "squeeze" milk out from my breasts - there's nine years difference between Sophie and Jacob and I only nursed Jacob for one month!!! :o

Our bodies are truly amazing, arn't they. To think that after 9yrs you could maybe nurse a newborn and
re-establish your supply is really great, isn't it?
