Producing milk again!

I ff feed my 10 week old baby (not wanting to debate ff vs bf please!) and now one of my breasts has started producing milk. Is this normal? Is there any reason this would happen? I am worried that I might be pregant again!

Don't know if it's common, but as far as I know (am not an expert!) it is unlikely to be a sign of pregnancy. If you are pregnant, your milk is actually far more likely to dry up (mine did around 4 months with DD1 as I was still feeding DD2).

It can take months for you milk to dry up. Any breast stimulation can restart lactation, most women who have been pregnant can restart lactation just by pumping.
