Do whatever you gotta do to lessen the load maybe just go stand in the shower under warm running water that usually helped me or just pump if you can't do that.

I went to the shower and took a hot shower and it help alot. Maybe try pumping alittle.

I'm no expert 😆 but right now your body's regulating and being engineer is normal....if you can feed baby that would be good to help release milk. If you have an over supply even after your body has regulated more then you may end up still pumping after feedings 😕 @paigerue2013

I am obsessed with bf. I bf my first for 17.5 months. And will try to do full 2 years this time. I recommend pumping only to relieve pressure. That will not affect supply. Do about a minute or two on each breast. this would be similar to baby nursing on the go

@scidg3, I might have to give it a few days before doing that! But I also might try the couple minutes on each breast I need some relief Atleast 😂
