How long for the milk to dry up?

I breastfed for a week but then decided it wasn't for me....so now I am just wondering how long it will take for the milk to dry up so I can get rid of these watermelons!

it really all depends...everyone is different.
for me it was about a month before I stopped leaking...although my breasts went down considerably after about a week

I would LOVE to know. I realize it's different for everyone, but it's been 7 weeks now and mine are still full Chat Icon

My milk dried up about 4 days after giving birth. It was soooo painful you won't be able to miss it-lol!

Mine dried up fairly quickly.. I would say about 3-4 weeks. For me it was only painful the first few days... I was so tempted to pump to release the pressure.
