Hi,

I received a phone call from a mom who weaned her baby 2-3 months ago, and today she noticed a brownish discharge coming from both nipples. I know that it is common for continued leaking for many months post weaning, but have never heard of a "rusty pipe" appearance after weaning - only in the first stages of lactogenesis.

I am very interested to see if any other LCs have seen this occurence after weaning. You can post to the list or email me at [log in to unmask] THANK YOU!
