Post-partum boob leakage...
I am not BFing but the leaking has continued. How long will this go on for? My left one is considerably worse than my right. So weird.

Not sure there is a real time line on it.. im a mammographer and have patients who have boob leakage years later..
Have you tried that cabbage leaf idea alot of moms post on here? Maybe that will help dry it up.

Before bed you take cabbage leaves and put over breast and wrap something around like ace bandage to keep in place and tight.. this will draw out the milk.. Im thinking this is how it works.. not positive. ill try and do a search on posts and bump it.

ok I just read some prevoius posts and something online and it says that the cabbage is used to reduce engorgement. They aren't engorged anymore. Just leaking. I wonder if the cabbage will help to dry things up.
