6 days p.p. and I'm bottle feeding. my boobs are so swollen and hurt if I pump to relieve the pressure, how long or how much do I pump and will it hurt or feel relieving??
@btener014, Yeah I Want to dry them up. I heard cabbage leaves too. I might have to pick some up tomorrow and give it a try. pumping helped a little but now my nipples are sore Lol!
Do you want to dry your supply? I hear cold cabbage leaves dries the milk up
Use a warm rag & rub your boobs b4 u pump that should help a lot & don't forget nipple cream after each feeding/ pumping
@mmora, I only got some out of My right breast, none from my left. well one boob feels a little better. I guess I'll try again in a couple hours
I have found that pumping for a minute relieves the pressure petty quickly :) and ya try using your hand if the pump hurts too bad
@mdomke22, I'm Bout to do it. hurts so bad I can hold my baby on my chest to burp him
just let enough out to give you comfort but don't empty ur boobs cuz they will just keep filling up. and wear tight sports bras is gunna hurt for a little while unfortunately :(

I don't have a pump and my breasts feel so full they hurt. How do I relieve the pain
Okay so I'm 32w2d, and stomach is so sore to touch, it hurts so bad, I can't really lay down my pelvic bone hurts super bad, I can barely walk... anyone else? How can I relieve the pain?
calling all mommies who are breast feeding or excessively pumping .. how did you all do it ?? I know some people pump right in the hospital day 1 !! I know my hospitals here allows you to pump from day 1 and breast feed at the same time they just give you a breast consultant to explain and show you how so you don’t mess up and get a over supply to soon . Some people only breast feed for awhile than pump 1/2 later . Some only pump period ... what’s your method and how successful are you ?? And ho...
Okay mommas what can I take or do to relieve the pain in my boobs. I'm not pumping or breastfeeding but my boobs literally are pouring out milk and it hurts so bad.
HELP PLEASE!!!
Yea, my boobs hurt sooooo bad when my milk first came in. It's been 5 weeks now and my nipples still are sore. I recommend taking Tylenol 30 minutes before pumping to ease the pain :)
