Bm leaking

Hi mummies! I am not sure if wad I am feeling is engorgement? Like out of a sudden boobs feel pain and very full..den bm will start leaking out continuously...wad should I do so as not to waste the liquid gold? Everytime this issue caught me off guard. The amount of leaks probably got 5ml on each side. Or do u just wear nursing pads to absorb the leaks?

This sounds like your let down reflex, sometimes when I hear baby cry or even think about baby itle will happen 😂. and when letdown starts you might feel a little painful too. Engorgement would be more like constant pain rather than sudden feeling. You can use a finger to block the nipple for a few seconds to stop the letdown if you don't want to waste the milk.
