I wouldn't say it's the norm. I'd talk to your doctor.

I'd talk to your doctor about it.
Hormonal changes can bring your milk back.

It's hard to know if it's milk or some other form of discharge, right? Even so, it's not a normal time for this to happen. Is it equal in both breasts? I don't know what kind of IUD you have or whether there's a hormonal component. So, as always, call your doctor and get checked.

definitely call the dr on that one. i breast fed my babies for a full year. and then leaked for a full year after my dr said it was normal and i had nothing to worry about since i had fed them for that year.
your dr will know you and your situation. talk to them

welcome to mamapedia, M.

You need to call your OB/GYN - you'll probably need another blood test done to determine if the IUD is releasing too many hormones in your body.

Breast feeding can take time for the milk to come in. Stress levels can stop the milk from coming in as well. I'm sorry you weren't able to breast feed your son.
