DS1 at 2.6 is saying no milk mummy, at first just in evening but now durring day. I'm sure there is as DS2 piling weight on and I'm leaking a lot. Could my boobs be only responding to one of them or is his latch changing

Ooh that's strange. DS said this once and I assumed that it was just that my breast was a bit emptier, and he couldn't be bothered to work for it iyswim.
As you say there must be plenty of milk!

Or perhaps "no milk" could be his way of saying "I don't want this milk", and you've reached that bittersweet moment when he moves on. In which case, big hugs.

Your milk may well have changed to adapt for DS2? This can sometimes have the effect of the older child not liking the taste.
How old is DS2?

My 23 month old DD did this when I came home from the hospital with her sister a couple of months ago - She asked for a feed took 2 sucks and said 'Mummy, that milk is agusting (disgusting) and never asked again.
