How common is it for milk to come back in? i stooped breast feeding two months ago and my milk came back in this past weekend? should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Quite common!: Milk production can continue in the breast for a few months, occasionally uo to a year, in a woman who has recently stopped breastfeeding. The production may increase during times of breast stimulation and even arousal. You should notice that the amount being produced should diminish with time. If no improvement in a few months, see your ob/ gyn.
