I'm breastfeeding for the first time, and my boobs are so engorged! They hurt and I'm feeling a lump in my right one, think it might be a clogged duct π anyone have any advice? My milk came in pretty suddenly and baby girl has been having a hard time latching on.
Pumping won't get rid of being engorged atleast it didn't for me but the shower and massaging will help a lot .. But like I said the best thing is t get the baby to latch on even if it's just for a few min it will make the lump go down
Yea I just did some hand expression, it helped a little, but I can't milk myself all night πlol. I get my breast pump tomorrow. I'll try the shower, thanks! π
Try cold cabbage leaves on your bare breasts. I was engorged two whole weeks postpartum and this helped
