BFing mamas - leaking at night?
What did you do about leaking at night? We bed share with DS (8 weeks) and he's only waking up once at night now. I pop the boob in his mouth and go back to sleep, so he only eats from that side at night (I give him the other side when we wake up). When I wake up in the morning, the entire front of my nursing tank and shirt are soaked, despite nursing pads. Any suggestions?

I would give it a few days. If waking only once is new for DS your supply needs a little time to adjust. Hopefully the leaking will stop on its own soon.

It's been about a week now, and I still leak at most feedings. This is all new to me, I never leaked with DS1!

I found I needed to change my nursing pads several times a night, and then I realized I shouldn't wear nursing tanks at night because the leaking was too much =(

I leaked a ton at night. I first switched my pads at night and then I was able to find some really great organic reusable breast pads that would get me through the entire night. Eventually, when she slept through the night solidly I stopped leaking at night.
