Postpartum query
Hi, I recently delivered my baby, it's not even a month.
I'm leaking breast milk whole day and night, and so I have to wear breast pads for 24hrs.
When will this stop as it gets very uncomfortable and messy?

You can express breastmilk and store it for your baby or even donate to a breastmilk bank. Engorged glands in breast can lead to infection sometimes, so it's important to express excess milk. It will get better with time.

You can store breast milk.
Best of all can donate to the milk bank, if available in your city.
