Okay I am a bit concerned. Since there are plenty of ladies on here who breastfeed, who have breastfed and quit, and who research it frequently...can someone please tell me how common is it to be still lactating if your baby is almost 2 and you have not nursed since like 10 months or so. Maybe longer maybe less. Do not completely remember?

Some studies show that women can leak small amounts for months to years after they stop breastfeeding. It mainly depends on your hormones I believe. I'm pretty sure I still leak a little from time to time. I just dont really.. check? but it feels like I do. I havent BF since Chase was about 4-5 months old. If you are really concerned about it, you can talk to your doc. But I wouldnt be too worried.

Nope I have not done anything since my last cycle and I am due to start again here soon. I also have taken tests thinking wow I am tired and nothing. It comes up negative.
