Lessly's right. The hormone is prolactin. If the level remains high for some reason, you will still have milk. This happened to a friend of mine several years ago. A very high level of prolactin can cause infertility problems. Talk to your doctor about having the level tested if your periods are irregular or you don't conceive within 6 months of ttc. It works on the same principle as natural protection from pregnancy during breastfeeding.

I've heard stories of the milk staying for years, just coming sporadically. My childbirth educator for my doula classes told me that once a woman reaches 5 months of pregnancy she is capable of producing milk for the rest of her life. I thought that was interesting. Are you giving Aiyana any of the milk?

Ouch! You could always express it by hand into her cereal or mix it with her food.
