Weaning from Breastfeeding.

Marci Kay has a question for all of us moms who breast fed at one point.

She writes, "I would like to know how long it took you moms to loose your milk once you started to wean your baby. It has been 2 weeks and I am still PRODUCING milk! Besides that I was only nursing 2 times a day before I weaned him...why the soreness still!?"

    I haven't had to wean before, but I do know that it can take months before all of your milk is completely gone.

    It took a few months for me. I had to feed once every other day for a week or two then every 3rd day. It was way annoying! Good luck!

    Just make sure that you do all that you can to prevent Mastitis. Cold cabbage leaves help and releasing a little here and there.

    Also eat lots of pineapple...you'll still make milk, but it'll keep your breasts from getting hard and sore...this is good for when your milk first comes in too.
