DD is 14 wks. Had to stop BFing at 4 weeks. Boobs continued to produce milk and haven't stopped for the past 10 wks(left one in partucular - no idea why!)

HV said I could take medication to stop it, that it wasn't a medical issue as such, but wasn't keen on that idea.

Huge amounts of swollen tenderness in left boob over past 24 hrs, loads more milk coming out. And now today, pus insteacd of milk. Can I get blocked ducts/mastitis this long after stopping BFing? I'm a bit worried...

Hi, I would have thought you can for as long as you are producing milk then surely the ducts can get blocked? I would get advice from your GP, it sounds like mastitis... Or try NHS Direct, 0845 4647.

Hope you feel better soon x
