This is very normal around day 3! You can hand express the milk or pump just a little bit to be comfortable. If you pump them clean out, it tells your body that you need to make more and do continue to have really engorged breasts! Cold compresses will help reduce swelling as well.

Also, if you notice your baby has trouble latching when you're really engorged, you may need to express some milk out first to soften the nipple area. I had to do that with my son around this time.
