Answering FAQs about my lactation
Hi, I am answering some FAQs so that I don’t keep repeating myself in the DM lol
How long did you breast feed after birth: I breast fed for only six months
How come you haven’t stopped lactating: I don’t know, I googled it and nothing comes up
Do you keep sucking or pumping for milk to keep coming?
No I don’t, the milk is just always there when I squeeze on a regular day, but when I ovulate they get full, and then I have to squeeze or “pump” the milk out because it gets painful. I exercise five times a week so when I exercise while I am “full” or ovulating that’s when I leak out of control. I just think my body has a lot of fluids and the doctor told me my estrogen levels are too high because I sometimes squirt without being aroused and no I don’t pee on myself, it’s usually a small amount when there’s pressure in my lower abdomen usually during or after an exercise, I know this about my body so I always take necessary precautions
Have you seen the doctor: yes and they put me on hormones for 3 months and I was erratic, I stopped them but the milk is still there
Are they big?
No I’m a C cup
Have you tried home remedies? Yes thats when I first stopped breastfeeding my daughter I tried everything under the sun
How are your hormones?
The luteal phase has me crying all the time but I hide so that I don’t affect anyone because I know it’ll be over soon
How’s your menstrual cycle?
It’s light, and very short, I go for two days and I have no period pains but some months I have terrible pains during ovulation and some months I have 5 day heavy periods but it’s mostly two light days
Are you fertile?
I don’t know, I don’t practice unsafe sex
Do you want more kids?
Yes maybe two more but I can also go without because I love my daughter she’s the best
What is your race?
I am black
