Ladies any advice on breast feeding? I am a FTM and i decided to breastfeed. My baby is only a few days old but i think im producing too much milk. My breast are super leaky, sore, tender and engorged. I have a breast pump but was told if i pump ill produce even more? Advice anyone?
It will regulate over the next two weeks use lanolin on your nips to avoid chapped nips
And if its too much pressure hand express jusr a tiny bit to relieve the pressure .
Any pumping will tell your body you need to make more milk
Taking a hot shower helped me. It triggered a let down so they were less engorged but since I wasn’t triggering them to make more milk by emptying them I didn’t make it worse.
Thank you :)
