@imhermomduh, I made a heating pad (a sock with rice and I warmed in the micro wave) I massaged my breast with that and I pumped and got it out!

I feel you momma! I read that you said it goes away and comes back? How big is this lump? With my first I had this pea sized lump that came in went for a while but eventually my boobs just worked it out and went away. I just used heat and the shower thing to soothe it until then. The shower thing works with engorgment real well also.

This is weird but get in a warm/hot shower- get on all fours and have the water hit the back of your shoulders where the breasts are. It'll help loosen some stuff up and then pump/ feed.

Get lecithin. I had a clogged duct two weeks in and took lecithin 3 times a day for a few days and massages and pumped. I know a duct is getting clogged if I feed and pump and still feel pained. I pop a lecithin pill and it clears it up. I will take one a day when I get back to work.

Massaging it in a warm shower helped for me.
