How long do you keep making milk?

So our last nursing session was about 2 weeks ago and I'm just wondering how long will I'll still make milk for? It was a very gradual wean and LO had only been nursing 1x a day for awhile before that. I am not engorged or uncomfortable or anything, but every time I take my clothes off I notice a little bit of milk on my nipples and I still leak a bit in the shower. LO is 18 months and I am also 11 weeks pregnant if that makes a difference. Thanks!

i would think that you'd dry up within another couple of weeks. i know some women can still express a little milk months after weaning... but since you're pregnant, once you get into 2nd trimester i would guess that whatever you have left will dry up. then sometime in 3rd trimester you will start making colostrum.

It varies by woman, like many things. Some women leak during pregnancy, even (without having nursed previously), so it's really hard to say.

We weaned about 2w ago. I'm 16w pg. I noticed that I'm only barely getting anything out when I squeeze.
