Do you feel your let down?

[Mummyxofx2]

I don't seem to feel my
Let down much. I feel it when a feed is over due but that's it I never feel it while feeding is this normal?

 

[missk1989]

I dont always feel mine. I don't think bits anything to worry about as long as your lo is getting enough milk. Maybe approach your MW if your worried or go along to a breastfeeding group.

i dont always but sometimes i do x

It took about a month for me to feel let down happening when I was feeding. Now I feel it some of the time but other times don't really notice it.

 

[staralfur]

I didn't feel my letdown until randomly about 5-6 weeks in. And then it only lasted until about 10 weeks and I haven't felt it since.

 

[Fortune Cooki]

I feel mine, but wish I didn't have to because it is uncomfortable! It seems to be lessening now though, finally.

 

[Athena]

I'm same as you only feel when overdue, usually first morning feed when my breasts are really full.

 

[SHAMto3]

Every single time. It's like a sharp pain.

 

[Babushka]

It took me a few weeks to feel it. I'm a FTM so I couldn't work out what the letdown was to start with but now I feel it regularly. It happens mostly in the opposite breast which is weird or when bubs is due a feed, I usually massage it to relieve it as it's quite painful.

 

[misspriss]

I didn't feel it for the first few weeks, I feel it now though. Like a huge tingling sensation. When I first started breastfeeding I didn't feel it, but now I do!

 

[toby1331]

Never felt it!

 

[greenlady]

Yes I do, with my first it was a a few weeks before I realised what it was and then it was quite painful. This time I've felt it from the beginning it's a tingling electrical feeling, it's occasionally painful when I'm really full but otherwise it doesn't bother me.

 

[JessPape]

I never did till 3 months, than it went away at 6 months. Some do, some don't its normal

 

[summer rain]

No not physically I just can tell its coming in my head, hard to explain. With some of my other boys I briefly felt the let downs towards the end of a feed but this only lasted a couple of weeks and it was more of an irritating feeling than anything else xx

 

[mia_leacey]

Very rarely. It's nothing to worry about.

 

[Mummy1995]

Didn't to begin with but do now! It hurt for a few months but it's calmed.down now

 

[wanting2010]

I never felt it up until maybe a month or so ago. Now I get a definite tingling sensation. Don't know why I suddenly started feeling it!

 

[Mummyxofx2]

I feel it between feedings is this a bad thing? Also when in shower I get it also even if I have just fed my lo. I was worried that lo wasn't getting my hind milk because I can't feel the let down

 

[MalcolmsMiss]

I have felt it every single feed since my milk came in, and I'm going on 7 months bfing now

 

[meli1981]

Yep, its a huge tightening sensation. I feel it every time i feed him and it goes like clockwork every two hours even if im not feeding him. Was the same with both girls. I just express some off the opposite breast and it relieves the pressure.
