Engorged at 16 months

[joruss]

Hi after feeding fine for 16 months tonight I was very engorged and started leaking quite a bit,
Why would this happen after all this time when I haven't done anything different? X

Is she feeding less?

Perhaps something you ate?

Feeding the same I did eat a bit more as it was my birthday, could it be that? X

Happy birthday! I don't think eating more would do it, but maybe a particular thing you ate?

I get engorged during a certain time in my cycle, roughly once a month, if you have not had your period yet, could it be your body regulating and the hormones causing it? I also have more milk after eating ginger, could be an ingredient in that particular meal?
