I got bold and thought I could start sleeping without them around 5 months, but now LO is 6.5 months and I've woken up in puddles enough times that I'm accepting I have to sleep with a bra/nursing pads for a long while now. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327957 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 22:05:19 +0000 ScarletBegonia 2327957@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I weaned my son at 10.5 months old and still leaked with the first feed of the day (after he started sleeping through the night). I wore breastpads constantly because I was too scared not too, so I was still having random leaks at strange times (I'm a teacher, and sometimes if I was counselling a student in distress or having an emotional moment with a friend I would get a letdown). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327952 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 21:52:02 +0000 Astro Bee 2327952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still leak at 6.5 mos, and will spray baby in the face if he pulls off suddenly, which is a regular occurrence. He's just so easily distracted nowadays. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327900 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 21:00:22 +0000 hellobeeboston 2327900@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gentlelunette: yeah, I spent a lot of money on breast pads. My second LO is 3 weeks old and I've already gone through a small box! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327880 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 20:36:14 +0000 MrsBrewer 2327880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I exclusively nurse, and LO is 4.5 months old and I'm pretty much done leaking now. Except if she sleeps through the night, and I'm nursing, then my other side will leak a bit. But I really never wear breast pads anymore. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327872 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 20:31:00 +0000 gentlelunette 2327872@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@avivoca: @SleepyMonkey: @JCCovi: @hellobeeboston: @Zbug: @Mrs. Oatmeal: @rosegold: oh man! Not what I wanted to hear, but glad it's normal! It's hard to go back to sleep when my bra is soaking wet. </p> <p>@oliviaoblivia: lucky! At 8 weeks I was still spraying baby in the face with rogue letsdowns. Haha. My boobs don't like to behave. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327472 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 15:24:47 +0000 rosegold 2327472@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@gentlelunette: oh it's normal 😇😇 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327466 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 15:23:19 +0000 Mrs. Oatmeal 2327466@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Around a year I think, when I dropped down to 2 feeds daily </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327365 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 14:43:48 +0000 Zbug 2327365@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not till we were down to one session a day at almost two years. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327292 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 14:13:40 +0000 hellobeeboston 2327292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Not until I 100% weaned... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-leaking-2#post-2327290 Tue, 20 Oct 2015 14:12:43 +0000 JCCovi 2327290@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With my first after about 3 months.

Often, when I nurse in the MOTN or at the first morning feed, the other side will leak like crazy, soaking through a breastpad and bra. During the day things are typically fine, but I've had a few leaks on an odd day. This doesn't seem normal to me- should my supply be regulated? </p> <p>When did you stop leaking?! </p>
