weaning

Girls, I have some questions on weaning:

  • How long does it take for your body to stop milk production? It is close to 1 month since I weaned Nikki, my body still has not got the message. When we stopped, I was hardly producing 2 ounces a day.

  • Can you resume breastfeeding after 3+ weeks of abstinence? (mum is advising against it, she says milk inside would have gone stale, I don't buy it, but just wanted to be sure because it was salty when I tasted it)

  • Will there be any long term health problems if your milk stays in your breasts for a long time? (not mastitis)

PS: was thinking about posting this a couple of days ago, with all the privacy issues I was holding it back a bit. Heck, this is a mommy blog and we are here to discuss these things
