Anyone with experience with breast pain when formula feeding. Just started hurting today. What can I…

Your milk is in and you're engorged because you aren't expressing your milk. If you will not be breastfeeding, take an anti inflammatory pain reliever, and wear a tight sports bra with cold cabbage leaves.

if your breasts become red, warm, and you have a fever then you need to be seen for mastitis

@arivera64, thanks. Should I just buy a head of cabbage and put it in the fridge or freezer?

either or is fine. I don't think id be able to stand it straight from the freezer lol but if you can then go for it

@arivera64, thanks. I am having such a hard time since I had my so. It was the same with my first. My vagina hurts so bad still, she had to do an episiotomy and vacuum him to get him out fast and now this. My legs and feet are swollen too from all the fluid. I can't wait to feel even slightly better. I feel like I'm the only one who feels like after giving birth is worse than actual labor. Lol.

You're welcome. I do understand. The first few pp weeks can be pretty rough, even when you've had an easy delivery. Go easy on yourself and hang in there mama

Thanks. I'm trying, it's so hard for me to just sit around. Lol. Even with help I tend to try to do too much. I did just take a nap and boyfriend is being more than helpful. @arivera64

well that's nice 😊
