For milk to dry up once you've stopped?
I started giving dd a bottle at 5months when i stopped dreamfeeding and decided to just give it at bedtime and about 3 weeks ago for her afternoon feed. She's now 8mo and I was wondering when my milk will dry up for those feeds or will if just be less milk there?

If you are feeding at other times your milk won't dry up as there will always be milk there but your body will probably get used to producing less milk around those times.

I think the longer you feed the longer your milk stays. My friend fed her baby till he was 2 he is 3 next month and she says her milk still hasnt dreied up.
