I woke up twice last night with my breasts engorged and the front of my shirt SOAKED with breast milk. My son wakes up 3 to 4 times a night to eat so I don't understand why this keeps happening!? Do they produce more at night or something because that never happens during the day for me.

Hang in there @abbys! Suddenly you'll go from crying with each latch to not even feeling it.
My nipples felt horrible when I first started breastfeeding. I was ready to give up it was so bad. But it gets better I promise! I don't feel anything at all anymore! @abbys
Are your nipples feeling any better? My daughter is 3 days old and my nipples feel like they have been sanded off.
Wow seriously I didn't even think about putting nursing pads in lol! I always forget i even have them! I'm gonna start doing that and just wearing a sports bra I guess. Thanks! @sev1226
I noticed it happens to me when I don't wear a bra... Something about how the fabric from your shirt rubs on your nipples as you sleep makes them think the baby is trying to eat. I got these nursing bras that kind of look like sports bras but looser and soft cotton...or I'll wear a nursing tank top to bed but I would put nursing pads in and it didn't Happen or if it did they just soaked it up so... Eventually it stops but I never leak during the day but at night I will... Just a suggestion!
I have slept with a sports bra on a few times and it still happens.
I wake up soaked just about every night😩 lol if you're baby is sleeping long periods you could wake up and pump even if it's just 5 minutes on both sides. I know waking up when you don't have to sounds horrible but it really helps lol
