My mom is helping me massage and pump both of my boobs and for 30 minutes between both boobs, we barely got an oz if not less. 😩
I’m so backed up and my boobs are so engorged that is super painful. 😭😭
@diannajayy, yeah. I wasn’t producing anything while in the hospital. We just put her on the boob to help get my supply in and I got it and now I’m backed up. @stephalot, I’ll definitely look into it. I haven’t gone to the store because I haven’t been wanting too
Yea I know what you mean, I had a C-section with my son and had a clogged duct within a week of having him, it gets better, just try to relax and drink a lot of water and take that pill. Mine got so bad my whole boob was red and almost went to the hospital then I started reading blogs about breastfeeding and found out about that vitamin. Within a few hours I was feeling better and pumps 3 oz
@caityyy_lynnn, hope it helps ! It will be a little painful since you are engorged so it’s really helpful if someone else massages you lol when I was still in the hospital when I had my daughter, the nurse did it to me🙏 you will get really wet ! So make sure you put a towel on your lap
@stephalot, I’m down for any help right now. I’m in so much pain and pumping releases for a little but it doesn’t last
@diannajayy, I’ll tell my mom about it. Thank you! @stephalot, when I go to the store, I’ll look for it. Thank you!
You can get it at Walmart and Walgreens in the vitamin area
It's to help prevent the breast ducts from getting plugged by increasing the polyunsaturated fatty acids in the milk and decreasing its stickiness. I used it when I was breastfeeding helped me. I would get clogged ducts all the time and almost stopped breastfeeding
Use a diaper, cut off the sticky parts. Go to the sink and let the water run until it’s warm/hot and soak the diaper and squeeze the excess(not too much) and put it over your boobs one at a time. If your mom is helping you, she can massage each boob for like 15 mins each side. Keep soaking the diaper to get it hot/warm again, you might use two. 1 for each side. Then after your done try pumping again, it will make it easier and help you pump more!
It worked for me when I recently had my daughter and I was engorged 🙌 hoping it helps you 🙏
@stephalot, what’s that? @momma_dee, and I do because when she’s actually latching on to the shield, I lean forward to help her more.
Try sunflower lecithin, it helps with clogged milk ducts
@nerdlove1315, we are trying to see if we can get it out ourselves but if nothing changes I will
@nerdlove1315, I barely got my supply in late Friday night and then yesterday I found a lump under my armpit. I haven’t been able to try anything because I’ve been clogged up since..
Might have wrong size nipple cups. Also are you drinking enough water? Are you drinking a cup of mother's milk (tea) once a day? I am and I'm pumping 2.5oz every 2hrs

My boobs are leaking and soaking my baby girl!!
