Let's see. Where to begin?
Well, I'm not 100% sure this is the best place for my question, but hopefully I can get some advice here!
My son will be one next month, and I stopped breastfeeding when he was about 10 months. My boobs dried up pretty quick without much leaking at all.
Recently I started leaking again, like I was pregnant. It looks just like the colostrum stuff. It caused me to start thinking I was pregnant again, but after taking two tests and having both come up negative, I'm pretty sure I'm not.
Oh, perhaps I should add that I recently got back on a normal birth control pill, though I don't think this has anything to do with it.
Can anyone provide some insight here? I have no clue what's going on!

You can lactate and leak for a year after quitting breastfeeding. More then likely, that is the culprit.

It doesn't look at all like breatstmilk, though. I sure hope that's the reason.

When I leaked after stopping nursing Ethan, it was always that very watery sticky fluid like when pregnant and first nursing. If I stimulated it and tried, it would then become thicker and milky white.

Okay, glad I'm not alone here! That's exactly what it's like. It seems to be stopping, though.
