    I wondered if some of you girls could offer any advice, I had my little boy 14 mths ago and on day 3 developed horrific mastitus, my boobs swelled from a small C (During pregnancy) to a DD literally overnight, and turned square and went rock hard….incredibly painful! if I had had implants it would have looked just like CC! I then stopped breastfeeding him and switched to formula. 14 mths on I can still squeeze milk out of both of them, literally just drops but have been told that this isn’t right….I’ve read a few times that there is a link between mastitus and CC!! eeekkk, am so worried about CC that this really scares me! x

    Hi Cazlack – CC is Capsular Contraction, sorry about the acronym :-)have you had your implants yet? if so, how long did you wait after having your boys? I’m using the cap/condoms for contraception right now as didn’t want to mess with my hormones anymore, have been using barrier methods since he was born xx

    heyy im a breast feeding support worker so hope i can help! once u stop feeding the milk should take a month at most to dry up but i have heard this once b4 but the woman didnt have implants, she had stopped for about 9-10 weeks and could still squeeze drops out! How long was there inbetween bfeeding and getting ur boobs done? How long have u had the implants for? and have ur boobs u just started leaking again or has it been the whole time? the only real way u could put ur mind at rest about cc is going back to mya and seeing some1? and if its not cc or anything to do with the implants see ur doctor? xx
