Mickey,
Not feeling full, not feeling letdown and not leaking are very normal for
many mothers who are feeding effective, gaining, healthy nursers, and
feeding 'constantly'. I was very surprised years ago to ask about letdown
and learned that so many women don't feel any letdown but have lots of
milk. (It may be 50-50 in my experience.)
I had such a painful, strong letdown that I couldn't imagine not feeling
anything. And leaking! Some don't even need nursing pads while nursing on
the other side. I needed bath towels. Again, the range of normal is so
wide.
When I leave town for conferences I generally leave the number of another
counsultant (and someone with pumps)and/or an LLLL/IBCLC friend of mine to
help with immediate needs, and let the callers know when I will be
returning so if it is something that can wait we will regain contact at
that time.
Cheryl
