Hey girls...It's been a looong time since
i've been on here! I was here a lot last
year at this time when trying to get
pregnant and now I have a 3 week old
little boy!
Just a question for you moms who are
breast feeding or have in the past. It's
going pretty well for us. The only thing
is I leak a lot at night because he is
such a good sleeper! Last night he slept
8 hours again and by morning, I was
soaked! I do wear nursing pads with my
bra at night but it leaked right through.
Does this go on the entire time i'm
nursing? I hope to nurse until he is a
year old but will I be wearing a bra 24/7
for the next year? Any suggestions are
appreciated! Thanks girls! :d

Completely normal some ppl leak more than
other, I used to leak when the neighbors
colikcy kid cried lol
I don't know if it's different for
everyone, but this is going by what my
sister has told me.. The leaking will
stop when your baby starts eating baby
food as well as breast milk, because you
won't be producing as much then.
I can't wait to breastfeed again!!! I
love the bond! How is everything else
going?

Sorry you are feeling like crap! Morning
sickness? Everything here is going
really well! He is such a good baby!
When he sleeps that long it worries me a
little! I always get up to check on him.
Lol

Your body will get on the same schedule as
your baby, just give it some time... If
your baby no longer wakes in the middle of
the night, then after a while your body
will no longer porduce milk over night...
There for problem solved... But don't
worry about other feeding times, say he
wakes at 7am everyday and wants to eat
right away, well your body will know that,
and your milk will be there.... So don't
worry and just try to deal with the
leaking for now.... After a week, maybe a
little more, it will get better
also have you tryed to "empty" your breast
right before you go to bed? Feeding or
pumping can help....

lack of life lol. I have absolutely no
energy! It sucks!!!!!! It takes
everything out of me just to get out of
bed :(. I feel nauseous sporadically
throughout the day, but I haven't thrown
up!!!
Isn't it crazy how your life revolves
around a tiny humane being?
