She may only need to nurse from one side a session. My daughter did that and always had enough. A shower and massage is a good idea. Unfortunately your breasts may get full while they regulate milk supply.

Definitely pump it out. Used to happen to me often at first. If you don’t have a pump, manual expression works and is be less painful. Always freeze the excess milk..... will def be a lifesaver later on

Why don’t you nurse exclusively?

Try taking a warm shower and massaging your breasts, especially the one that’s hard. Sounds like a clogged duct. Nurse or pump as much as you can and drink lots of water. I’m sorry mama, hang in there!
