[luminarphrases]

my breasts have been leaking milk all day, but i haven't breastfed my daughter (3) for a year and a half, i've been at work, haven't seen any babies nothing! what the hell is happening? help!!

[dylsmum1998]

a personal question, but is af due a visit? my mother in law told me she used to get this occasionally when af visited?

[cupsoftea]

get prolactin levels in blood checked?

[luminarphrases]

af? sorry don't know what that is

i might go to the doctor, just because it's so weird. was a bit worried i might be pregnant, could that be a possibility with a second child?

[PuppyMonkey]

I think she means your period..?

I've always wondered what af stands for actually

[terramum]

AF = Aunt Flo aka your period...occasionally referred to as "the old bat" as well

[PuppyMonkey]

Well bugger me.

ah, i did not know that! im not due on for another fortnight, so i don't think its that. its stopped now, so hopefully it was just some weird one-off

[dylsmum1998]

sorry was trying to be polite, not one of my string points, yes i meant your periods.
i never had this myself, just remember my mother in law telling me about it after i had my dd.

if period is due in 2 weeks, then you might be ovulating which might muck up your hormones?

[luminarphrases]

perhaps its just my broodyness. (dh isn't even here, but i can imagine him over my shoulder 'we can't afford it, we can't afford it' has become his permanent mantra

I came across this on kellymom the other day. Pregnancy would be one reason for it or some medicines can cause this

I would be inclined to do a pregnacy test and if negative have a chat with the doctor about it.

good luck xx
