Yep they will give you the pill, I had it with #2. Still got leaking for a few weeks as I have a great supply (just can't feed) so had to wear padded, underwire and tight bras 24/7, and keep my hormones in check (hard to do). Sometimes that meant getting DH to feed the baby if she was crying way too much, as that always set off the milk.]]> Thu, 15 Apr 2010 09:02:58 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=996812&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#996812 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=996654&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#996654 Author: Ella1

Cabbage leaves are also supposed to help.

Someone recommended cabbage leaves to me to help with engorgement, but when I told my mw, she told me to not use it as it would diminish my milk (I was BF). ]]> Wed, 14 Apr 2010 21:44:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=996654&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#996654 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=995694&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#995694 Author: kebakat

The pill works 80% of the time, so be prepared just in case it doesnt ]]> Wed, 14 Apr 2010 06:40:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=995694&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#995694 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=995624&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#995624 Author: Peanut

Yip, the MW should prescribe you a medication which will stop milk production but you may still get some leaking.

If your MW won't prescribe it just ask on the ward for it.]]> Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:48:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=995624&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#995624 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=32830&PID=995581&title=stopping-milk-production-after-birth#995581 Author: mumzrule

Your mw should be able to give you something straight after birth.
