not one bit! no leaking either. I was shocked, because I had a lot of engorgement and blocked duct issues throughout nursing.

A little. I did it week by week so it wasn't too bad. But after the LAST session, I noticed that my boobs didn't feel full but my nipples hurt. I realised I was engorged slightly and hand expressing what was left helped a lot!

@sorrycharlie: @Mamaof2: I didn't get engorged at all last time but I was pregnant. I hope it is the same...FX!

Nope! I was down to once a day and he had been eating for a little less time every day for about a week, so when we stopped, I didn't notice any engorgement.

When I first started I was but once I fully weaned we were down to only one feed a day and I hardly noticed a change. No leaking or engorgement. I did have nipple pain about three weeks after weaning which was odd but that's it.

Yes, even though there wasn't much left by the time I did! It took me about 2-3 days of discomfort and only one week until I could get nothing out.

Nope! I was a little sore one night but it didn't hurt too much. I spread out my weaning so I wouldn't have issues and it worked!

Yes, I had to pump a couple times for each session I cut out. I tried cutting a session without pumping and I got a clogged duct.
LO has been eating from one side since 10 weeks (16 months now). The nipple on the side she hasn't been eating on has been aching off and on throughout the weaning process. No pain on the side she has been feeding on.

Nope - not at all.
But I did have raging hormonal issues - nausea, headaches, fatigue.

Not engorged, but uncomfortable for a couple days and then I got a blocked duct. I massaged it out in the shower and that was it!
