How can I deal with my leaking breasts?

Some women leak all the time and others never leak. Contrary to a popular myth, the amount you leak is not indicative of how much milk you have. And just because you leak a lot in the beginning, it does not mean that you will continue to leak at that same rate throughout your breastfeeding experience.

Some women leak less as their breastfeeding relationship goes on and as their bodies adjusts to making the amount of milk their babies needs. Other women continue to leak well into their breastfeeding journey. Whichever group you fall into, there are solutions! Lansinoh Disposable Nursing Pads are soft, discreet and highly absorbent. If you do not wish to wear nursing pads, you can also put gentle pressure with the inside of your forearms on to your nipples as this will help stop the leaking.
