Sooo I'm having a bit of a problem .. I'm breastfeeding but my baby all of a sudden decided she didn't wanna latch anymore or if she does only one side . My boobs are FULL & getting hard & sore what should I do ? I don't wanna get her stuck on formula cause I'm determined to give her breastmilk unfortunately I won't be getting a pump until sometime tomorrow , but my boobs are hurting NOW ... Help me please
if your boobs are too full, baby may have trouble latching! get some of it out so your nipples are softer and easier to latch on to!
take a warm shower and express some milk that way your boobs won't be engorged
if you have a pump, pump them.... if not an electric one walmart has a $20 manual one and it works wonders
there are some good videos on YouTube that give you a how-to! I had to learn so I could mix it with homemade baby food. reminds me of milking a cow lol
Put your hands near your areola and pull back softly and it should start flowing.
@tahtahme, thAt just might be the problem , thank you
