Pumping pains

Jessica

Why is that no one tells us about the true aches an pains of breastfeeding our child, it’s amazing to me how when she feeds it doesn’t hurt nearly as bad as when I have to pump. I feel like my boobs are about to explode, thank goodness for family who is my support system. My cousin told me continuously massage my boobs and if I lose some milk it’s okay. My sister in Law suggested cabbage leaves.

I have the best pump out on the market an it’s way better than the one my insurance gave me for free, but this is painful! Any other suggestions are welcome, I will breastfeed my child and pump, I know it’s best for her.
