Hmm,not sure. I bf ds for 10.5 months, stopped 2.3 yrs ago. Can still produce milk with slight pressure around nipple - not that you needed to know that!!

Well my mum reckons she can squeeze a few drops out and my sister is 26 this year

I've heard that the combined pill can stop it, certainly found that to be the case inbetween pregnancies.

As far as I know a doctor can prescribe something to dry up your milk supply..

May have to go to the drs then.
