What can I do to help my breast milk increase? They are engorged and I have mastitis
Aw sorry to hear that! Try to pump in the shower or in a relaxing bath. It may even help to look at his picture while you pump you need to stimulate those mommy feelings to help with let down
@sparklingjewels, well at the moment he’s in the hospital and I can only pump but I’ll definitely do that when we go home
The best way to empty your breast is to let baby nurse, baby is the most efficient at emptying the breast if the latch is good. You may need to see a lactation consultant though to make sure the latch is good because a bad latch can cause your breast not to empty well and lead to these problems you are having. But use a heat compress and massage your breast and let baby nurse from the breast as much as possible.
@mommy_domo doing that should clear it in 2 days. If your boob leaks, pump.
So you have a clog?
Feed and pump on all 4's. Let gravity do the work
@mhbbb2, I breast feed tryna get the milk out cause they so heavy but nothing every really comes out my right breast beside a drop or two
@doimakeyourandi, yes I beastfeed I’m just tryna get the milk out but it not coming of my right breast
You can express just a little if youre overly full but just remember each time you express your body thinks that it needs to produce that for baby so try not to do it too much.
@sparklingjewels, im trying to get my milk to come out my milk is not coming out and I’m getting treated for mastitis but I have to keep pumping and I not getting anything out of my right breast
I lived on heating pads. I had to rub my boobs with the heat as well. I used cabbage and it never decreased my supply but really helped. Have you been seen?
The best way to increase supply is to breast feed in demand or pump for at least 20 min every few hours. I'm confused why you want to increase if your overly full. Either way if you put baby to breast each time he/she asks for as long as they want your supply will smooth out and you'll just produce what baby needs.
You don’t want to increase your milk if you are engorged and have mastitis... ? I’m confused. Can you explain further what you are trying to do? Did you mean decrease?

I will be 41 :/
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Things I never thought I'd say...
Until I became a mom:
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
I’m a registered nurse and have a video on increasing supply on my channel. Take a look!
