If you keep pumping your body will keep making it. Your body thinks the baby needs that much milk. I always over produce too. I am almost always tempted to pump but that just makes matters worse. If you don't have to return to work I say stop pumping and let your body regulate on its on. It will suck for a few days and be very painful/uncomfortable but it will pass. If you have to work and will need the stored breast milk keep pumping.
HELP! can't empty breast
I feel like I have a strange problem. I usually read about woman not producing enough milk, but I have too much. My little guy is 5 days old and when I pump I get at least 8 oz. I know, I know. I'm not complaining. But he obviously can't empty all of that. So is my only option to pump after every feeding? Anybody else have a problem like this?
