hello debbsy

is it leaking out, or only if you squeeze?

can be a hormonal thing, to do with prolactin levels, FWIW, i did not breastfeed, and i was still getting the odd drop of milk or damp bra for a year after I had DD.....

i take it you are thinking you could be pregnant?

Hi Lulu how are you?Its only when i squeeze and i only squose cos it felt like a pressure build up.

i think it is an issue if it just leaks out or if it is bloody or mucusy....

the more you squeeze, the more your body will respond my making more !

you could see your GP for a proper medical opinion , of course

am fine thank you x

well, you should go to docs maybe to put your mind at rest, and if you are not pregnant, you might want to think about contraception as withdrawal method not terribly reliable, even if you have had trouble conceiving previously, now you have had a child, you might be more fertile... it is hard, but you manage !
