my right breast is so engorged. it's always been a little larger not noticeably but for me I can tell especially now that I'm a dairy queen... I am trying the suggestions such as cold compresses nurse on the smaller breast 1st and end with the larger breast but it doesn't seem to be helping.. HAS ANYONE ELSE EXPERIENCED THIS ????
I'd pump then...if they are engorged you risk infection and clogged ducts😔 @bella91
@bella91, do it in the shower, the hot will make you leak! Just a start from the top and massage down! I would take two hands and squeeze each angle to see what I would get
Hand expressing definitely feels a lot better than pumping. I just sat on my bed shirtless and just massaged my breast with a towel in my lap, or even when you nurse on the smaller one, do it completely shirtless with a towel under baby on your lap and massage the other breast while you have a let down, which usually happens about a minute or two after baby is sucking.
i had this thing tou could heat up and put on and it helped. it was by lanoish... or however you spell it.
