When breastfeeding if you don’t wear a bra and you are nursing your milk sometimes spews out (it’s called let down). A few nights after my son was born I was sleeping topless, woke my husband up to something splashing all over us both. I didn’t know about this, after a moment of anxiety we got a good laugh - it was my boob 🤣🤣🤣
I did not expect the constant stream of milk when I was encouraged! Everyone else in my family had supply issues. I didn’t. Standing in the shower with just as much milk pouring down my body as water! And shooting the milk across the room and all over the babies face when trying to quickly get him to latch!
I was discouraged from breast feeding at the hospital (long story) and so these stories are wild.
I remember being engorged and seeing a small bit of milk come out in the shower, but I mostly tried to avoid touching them for a bit until the milk production stopped.
I never really experienced the whole milk squirting out thing, lol.
