why have my breasts suddenly gone into over-drive after nearly 10 months of breastfeeding?

I have 2 boulders on my chest, can barely fit in my bra and am leaking again. DD is nearly 10 months old and hasn't changed her feeding pattern lately. Last week I had a bit of spotting and thought I'd be getting a period but it never started. Since then I've been feeling very pre-menstrual and I've noticed by breasts getting fuller. It's obviously my hormones going a bit funny but what's going on?

Could you be pregnant? Alternatively your DD may be cutting down on her feeds. She may be taking less milk so although feeding as often there is more milk there. If this is the case it should settle down in a few days.

Being pregnant would be virtually impossible, always use condoms and tbh haven't had a lot of time together anyway. . Being paranoid I tested anyway and it was negative. I think you could be right, maybe she is feeding as often but not hanging out so long. I hope things settle over the next few days.
