I had a baby 8 months ago and i didn't breast feed and although it has stopped leaking milk I am getting dried up milk. I have never had a baby before so I don't know if this is normal or not?

What can I do next?

You may leak a little for months of years! It's totally normal.

Probably normal, but if you are worried about it, talk to your doc. Breast leaking can be a symptom of other things, BUT, since you just had a baby I would assume that it is not anything else but milk.

It is totally normal. It can take quite a while for breasts to stop leaking and longer to stop making milk totally.

Toatally, completely normal...nothing to worry about. It will take a while longer for your body to get back to normal.

Weird as it is SOME women will leak for up to 2 years after, other causes can be as simple as stress messing with your hormones. a blood draw could eliminate any concernes if you get too worried about it ;)

After I stopped breastfeeding in May of 2009, I can still get breast milk out...kind of like your body not letting go. mine was never a leaking issue but I could manually get it out.
