So title kinda says it all, my baby is 3 weeks old and the other day my DM told me she'd started leaking colostrum. Not only that but this happened with my first born too. At the time she was on HRT and the doctors blamed it on that and she stopped it, she's not on it this time so it would seem to be a direct reaction to the birth of my baby.
I'm somewhat fascinated and was wondering if anyone had any knowledge or experience of this? I've had a look and can only find other forums, no scientific explaination so was hoping anyone in the medical profession could answer.
Would love to know if this is a common occourance at all
