Drying up milk ?

What will help ? I had to give up breast feeding because it was causing panick attacks.. .. And now Im on medicine that doesn't make it safe for me to pump..

I pretty much dried up on my own with my older daughter, this time around it just wont let up..

Cabbage leaves work on the breast. Don't pump or stimulate milk production.

cabbage leaves in your bra will do the trick


but really if your not pumping or feeding time will do the trik and drink caffine

Take regular suddafed. It can cut your milk supply up to 50%.

Wow, BF causingpanicattacks? That's a new one.

I didn't need the rude comment but thanks!

I have serious anxiety issues to begin with.

  who cares why she has to or wants to stop breastfeeding it's her child!


OP: Nothing honestly worked for me, it took about 2 weeks for my milk to dry up and was the most painful thing of my life! Tight sports bra and ice packs, tylenol and advil and whatever you do dont stimulate them!

not that i have anxiety issues but im sure the stress of it can cause panic attacks! you dont need to be rude if you dont know her situation!  

as for drying up, id try the cabbage leaves or just let time work its magic.

I had anxiety problems too but my milk dtyed up on its own i think its becuase i was nervous all the time and worried. i thought her comment was rude to, everyone has different reactions to EVERYTHING even breast feeding. theres nothing wrong with it

I tried cabbage leaves also cause when I had my misscarraige I couldnt get my milk to dry up either. I finally called my doctor and found out I wasnt supposed to be taking hot baths cause that makes your milk come down. I guess your supposed to know that but i didnt. Ive also heard their is supposed to be a pill you can take but my dr. didnt mention it. Maybe you can ask your dr if nothing else works. Good luck!

Thank you! I didn't want to stop.. But I could not handle it anymore..

Quoting Kadence's momma:“ Thank you! I didn't want to stop.. But I could not handle it anymore..”

I didnt want to stop either, and I hate how expensive formula is! But sometimes your body has other plans for you. My baby is 7 weeks old and as chunky, cute and happy as can be even without my milk!

STOP! Every time I see you in a thread about BF'ing you are so rude.

Thanks for the info ladies.
