    Sudafed is reported to cause a long-term reduction in milk supply in Mum's feeding older babies - so it may well have done the trick. But you would make milk for a subsequent pregnancy .

    I think generally once your milk dries up, it stays that way unless you fall pg again & your hormones change again. I hear of lots of women needing help to dry up their milk, but they don't need to stay on whatever medication they use forever. So hopefully this is it

    Maybe I should get a cold... though I'm sure DD would feed right through & insist there is milk there somewhere.

    Good luck with your reduction when you get it done. I had one 18 years ago and the reduction in pain etc was amazing. PM me if you'd like more details :-)

    Have you seen a doctor for more advice?
