This may be a trigger for those who struggle with breastfeeding... You can skip if you think it will be that for you!
❗️
I'm currently 34 weeks and my milk is in. To the point where I'm suffering with my milk ducts being clogged.
😩. It's starting to be unbearable. I've tried warm compress and being in the shower but it won't leak out. I'm so tempted to express...but my doctor said he doesn't really want me to pump because it could cause me to go into labor... What else can I do? 😩😣😒
@scidg3, thank you. I'll check it out!
@rese ANY nipple stimulation can cause contractions... So do a little research first, especially if you have any preterm risks.
Go see a LAC SPECIALIST!! They might be able to help you hand express some pressure out and give you safe ideas.
That makes sense! I didn't know if they'd help me being that I'm still pregnant and trying to avoid labor lol
@rese they can help you, they're more trained than your doctor on the matter. Hand expressing shouldn't cause any problems.
Are you sure it’s milk and not just your breasts preparing. Your body doesn’t start to produce milk until baby stimulates them by suckling and drinking your colostrum. Milk takes 3-7 days of stimulation to start coming in. I’d leave them alone.
Yes I'm 100% sure. My breast are almost to the point of mastitis. My ob felt my breast and everything today.
I expressed a little bit and saw it as well
Get half a cabbage head it’ll help. I was a cook at a local hospital and the nurses there called down to the kitchen for half a head of cabbage for a new mom
I'll try it! I'm willing to try anything at this point lol
I tried. But they're so hard. It hurts. Idk.
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...
AF due 29th, anyone else?
Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x

What did your doctor say? I'm curious! Wear a loose bra or clothes, massager can help break clogs up but I'd definitely ask before doing any of these because it can cause contractions if you start doing anything like pumping.
