Debbie, I leaked like a sieve for the first 6 months I nursed my firstborn. Every day I had a milkbath. I just did double nursing pads and then shoved a cloth diaper under my shirt at night. For kids 2 and 3 I only leaked like crazy form one side when I nursed ont he other. Sometimes I put a bottle under the other side to catch the milk for freezing for later use. Putting pressure on my chest only got my shirt wet, it never slowed the flow. I just put a cloth diaper under my shirt on one side as I nursed on the other or wore nursing pads. But I never worried if I could produce enough milk! Carol M. Coughlin, RD Your Favorite Dietitian
