Ok, let me begin by stating that I'm a first time mom. I've been breastfeeding for 8 weeks now, and leaking for about 5 weeks. I have to change my breast pads at least twice a day, and I always have wet spots on my shirt (I'm a SAHM, so it's not too cumbersome). When I feed my baby, the non-nursing boob leaks like crazy. He's been soaking wet at the shoulder from my milk squirting him in the face or being dripped out of his mouth due to high volume. But when I pump, I only get 3 ounces per boob/per pumping session. I'm tired of having constantly wet pads/shirts/baby. I feel so icky!

When does the leaking stop?!
