Hi Sansouci,

Just wanted you to know that someone has read your thread. You couldn't be pregnant, could you?

sansouci · 30/09/2005 10:24

Have you sniffed a baby recently? I find that mine start up again if I even watch a huggies advert too closely .

mine never went between dds either dd1 is now 3 and i feed her for 11months and dd2 is 3months so reasonable gap between. milk never stopped was going to see gp but then got pg again

I had 9 years between my first two and the second two but I could always get some out of mine and still can now and youngest is 18 months but they give me no pain, I would be more concerned about the pain than i would the milk tbh. Hope you get some answers from the GP

Hi S, seeing as it's now Friday and you probably won't be able to see your gp tomorrow, if I were you, I'd go to the local drop-in-clinic and tell them about the pain - I wouldn't leave it two weeks until your gyn. comes back, hope you get it sorted out soon, take care
