A question for posters who bf for a year or more

[VitaminA]

I have been bf for nearly a year now, and over the last month my breasts have become very soft and I've lost a cup size. I'm wondering if this is normal or does it mean I'm no longer producing any milk?

Normal. Boobs settle (aka deflate!!) but there is still milk. If you are worried look for signs of milk: a let down sensation, milk at the corners of baby's mouth, visible swallowing, contentment at the breast... these should be signs that things are all good.

If your baby is starting to have more regularly spaced feeds, as in more hours between feeds, I think your breasts don't remain as full. That's what happened to me anyway. But teething or a growth spurt or anything that triggers increased feeds will probably cause them to get fuller again.

Totally agree

After a while, my breasts stopped being weird unpredictable breastfeeding breasts that would go all hard and leaky and big and randomly squirt milk, and were just normal breasts that would also produce milk when the baby/toddler/preschooler wanted some. I had really small breasts before I was pregnant, and they always kept the pregnancy growth, but apart from the size, they felt much like pre-baby breasts.

Normal, assuming your baby is eating a good amount of solids you will be producing less milk. Your supply will also be well regulated and you'll only be making the exact amount you need.

Totally normal.

Thanks everyone!
Deflate is definitely the right word to describe what has happened to my breasts unfortunately! DC seems to be happy after a feed so presumably he is getting enough milk. I hope so because I would be really sad to stop now.
