As I was somewhat involved in this story of the woman with milk
production 2 months after weaning, I should remind those posting that
the issue was *not* a high prolactin, or even leaking milk.  I have
been called frequently about milk production for long periods after
weaning (a year or more--my advice is usually to stop squeezing the
breast to see if there is still milk).  The story was that this mother
was *soaking* two cloth diapers with milk every night, having to get
up to change them they were so wet.  This seems a little out of the
ordinary.  Am I wrong?
