FIRST TIME MOM HERE

I just had my baby 4 Days ago and I'm not breast feeding. My boobs are SUPER sore and each boobs have 2 HUGE knots in them. What am I to do? I'm freaking out here. I have a breast pump but I was told not to use it even to pump and dump only because I'm not breast feeding and I don't want the milk to continue to build up. I was also told not to run warm water on them. ANY SUGGESTIONS???

@jiya I imagine it's only temporary. Plus cabbage doesn't have too much of a smell until you cook it so maybe it won't be too bad haha

@meetthevalentines2017 I will definitely try it out though. I rather deal with the smell than deal with the pain!

@mommykai yeah I was told not to use hot or warm water. I'm thinking about using ice packs maybe that will help

Hot water will make your boobs hard as a brick and they’ll definitely leak. Try cold compress and a tight fitted bra

I took a hot shower and felt a pop and milk just ran out my boobies.

Express enough to relieve the pain, and put cabbage in your bra.

Cold compress if you dont plan to breastfeed. Pumping will cause more milk which will keep producing

I just took warm showers. I did breastfeed for about a week though. Once I stopped, i leaked like crazy and had the knots as well that were painful. They eventually just went away and I stopped leaking.

Hand express enough to relieve, warm compress/shower, massage breasts, but don’t make a habit out of it. Even those will demand your body to make more milk, if you get a fever, pain and knots worsen, go to the ER.
