@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-2nds-mama, no Ma’am , he just does for his daughter that’s it , but sometimes he call his self trying to have his cake & eat it too

- It took your body nine months to be able to make milk for your baby, it won’t just go away in a week or two. 💪🏻 It’s painful, but you can handle it. Cabbage leaves make a huge difference 🙌🏻 definitely call lactation. You can even just call your local hospital and ask for them or maybe even just maternity.

@michellecolbert92 are you still with babies daddy, if that's not too personal to ask?

@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-2nds-mama, fat as money wise yeah . But anything else HELL NAW

@michellecolbert92 does daddy help?

@michellecolbert92 huni I've been there, I was in your shoes a lil over 3 years ago, and believe me, you're more than welcome sweetie! Motherhood is beautiful, but can also be a pain in the ass lol ijs hahaha

@aaliyah-and-rodez-the-2nds-mama, thank you so much , I’m happy I can come on this app & get help because I’m just a first time mom & I really don’t know anything

Keep using the cabbage leaves and also massaging and hand expressing some in a nice warm shower can give you some relief too. Are you opting out of breastfeeding? No judgement if so, I didn't with my daughter, and only did a few times with our son. But either way that can give you relief, that or get a hand pump, and only pump when they get to hurting real bad, and wear a tight Bra with the cabbage leaves and breast pads!

If you have access to a certified lactation specialist, I strongly urge you to visit them or get in contact asap. They can help you dry your milk without risking mastitis or other infection. Until you see a professional you can keep ice and hand express some milk out if you need to

@kambam, first time mom , I don’t know what to do

@kambam, I have to do something because they do big & swollen & they hurt so bad

Keep icing them and get some peppermint or sage tea. Other people say cough medicine will dry you but that would just make me puke personally lol

@thequeen, ugh 😰

@kambam, yesssss

Massage!!

Are they hard and full?

It’s going to take a couple months
