    When does breastmilk dry up?

    For anyone who has breastfed for what is considered an 'extended' period, or anyone who knows..... How long does it take breastmilk to dry up completely? Does it ever fully disappear?

    I understand if you have children closer together you may never have empty breasts between babies. But what about after you finish your family?

    I assume it would be a case by case scenario but there must be a ball park range? Would it be longer for someone with an oversupply vs normal supply?
