Breastfeeding moms what is your funniest milk leaking story?

Question

I have been breastfeeding for about a month now and I had no idea when I started that milk would spray from my breasts or it would leak and make big spots on my cloths usually in the most embarisaing times.

I figure that there are many funny stories all you moms have about it so please share.

I posted the question and accidently closed it early I wanted to get some more stories because the ones I got before were so great. Please share and look at the other question for the other stories.

Answer 1

I don't know if it is a funny story, but boy can that milk travel far. When my son was born, he was a 28 weeker, I made soo much milk that I had enough frozen for 2 kids to feed. And when he finally came home from the hospital, OMG was there a let down. I could spray the milk across the room at my husband. He still to this day remembers that. I have had soo much fun nursing my kids. They are all so healthy now. I have friends who question me all the time.. weren't you embarassed. No was and will always be my answer. I have to feed my kids, and I don't think that fake stuff is good for them....

Answer 2

The first is when I was nursing. My mom nursed me till I was past 3, and I did the same with my girls. I remember being in the balcony of church as a young child and I wanted to nurse, but my mom refused, obviously. I wouldn't give up, and I remember getting very mad and shouting (during a prayer, no less) "I want a boobie!". The pastor approached her after church and reminded her there is a nursery there, and she should use it.

Also, since I nurse my children so long, they learn tricks like standing to nurse, sitting next to me on the couch and turning their heads to nurse, and my youngest would get the milk started, let go, and then drink like it is a drinking fountain. Or just hold her mouth open and step back and try to catch it in her mouth. Crazy!

There are just way too many times I have leaked, soaked, squirted, been asked for milk by toddlers at inappropriate situations, etc. Once I was having a garage sale with my friend and the baby was only 6 months old. I was sitting in the chair nursing her near the lawn when something startled or interested the baby, and she let go just as my let-down occured. My friend laughed so hard, because it was squirting 5 feet out, and as she said, "You can water the lawn with those things!"

Answer 3

I have 2, when my daughter was first born (by c-section) i was soo exhausted, my husband says he looked over and my baby girl had fallen off the breast and was snuggled into my lap, my breast was hanging out and milk was dripping on my poor baby's head and i was fast asleep...my husband called my name and I gasp, lifted her head and latched her back on.

2 months ago (when my daughter was 8 months) I was (am) still breastfeeding but I don't really fill up or leak anymore...but for whatever reason I was a bridesmaid in my best friends wedding and as soon as they said walk down that aisle, my breasts went rock hard with milk. Luckily our bridesmaid dresses were saris and I was able to hold the scarf out in front of my blouse so that if I leaked hopefully it wouldn't be too noticeable on my sari. I had to sit thru an entire 45 minute Indian ceremony!!

Answer 4

I went to my groceries store to get milk... and all else... and I didn't bring the baby with me so I could be faster... anyway I get close to the checkout point, and there's this baby in front of me with his mommy, and the cry just triggered my let down, okay... So I get there and I know the cashier guy, and he looks at the milk carton I am buying, and then at me... and then says "Got milk"??? I didn't get the joke until I got out of the store and the breeze made me aware of the wet spots on my blouse... Dang!!!
The thing is, I always wore breastpads... so that I won' be embarassed, but somehow they slipped away from my nipples... and so everything came through....

And then a funny one... I had so much milk with my first daughter, I used to just store it in the freezer, but one day I ran out of the storage bags, and put it in a glass... in the fridge until I'd get more bags... My husband gets up early in the morning, and makes his oatmeal, and he doesn't think twice, he puts it in his oatmeal... Then I call him at work to ask him if he put that in something else, well, he said he thought it had a different taste, and that he ate it with the oatmeal... thinking it was leftover milk and didn't want to waste it... Oh, well... LOL ... He also put it in his coffee one time.
Actually since then he calls me the Dairy Queen...

Answer 5

This is not a funny story it's more like a embarrassing moment!
I went to department of children and family to try to get Medicaid for my son. As the case worker was reviewing my case my breast started to leak, which I did not know at the time. When I got outside and look down at my chest it was a big wet spot on one side of my breast. I felt so embarrass because my case worker saw it and did not mention it to me, and I walked out in the lobby everybody probably saw it. What made it soo sad I NEVER tried not once to breast feed my baby.

Answer 6

I never had anything major, except this.
It doesn't even qualify for anything cause nobody but me saw it.
I wanted to take a shower before my son woke up. I was pretty full, but thought nothing of it. So I hop in and the warm water had just enough heat in it to make my milk go. I mean it was spraying like a hose. I'm laughing, and laughing and milk is everywhere, on the shower door, it flew up to the window, it was crazy. That was the funniest for me. :D

Answer 7

I had just taken a shower with my son (about 1 month old) and decided to put a diaper on him before I got dressed and I started leaking all over him..also I was hand pumping once and missed the bottle and hit my husband in the eye..it was the funniest thing ever.

Answer 8

I had been breastfeeding for about 6 mths and was tired of wearing a bra with breast pads while my husband and I had "loven time". I decided to hell with it and took it off. In the middle of some pretty intense foreplay, my breasts decided to let the milk come and it shot out of my nipples, and bam it got him right in the eye. I laughed so hard while we ran around trying to find a towel to staunch the jet stream of milk. God I love being a woman...lol

Answer 9

Well, I'm not a mom, but the funniest was the first month after the doctor said we could get frisky again. Every time she'd get in the mood, she'd look like a milk sprinkler.

Answer 10

I am breastfeeding my six-month-old and night before last I went to a club with a group of my girlfriends for a bachelorette party. One of the things we were doing (as a gag) was selling blow pops for a dollar, asking men if they wanted to buy "a suck for a buck"...well, the first few times that we used the word "suck" I had a let down! I guess just the word "suck" connected in my brain to nursing! LOL!
