Allergic to pumping/breastfeeding???

Question

I literally had to almost toss the baby last night😪😫. My armpits itch like CRAZY when I’m pumping or breastfeeding lately. Especially during the first let down...it’s almost unbearable and scratching provides zero relief. 
I’m on month 3 of this journey and it’s getting worse and worse😭

Answer

I did a quick Google search & a lot of stuff came up on different forums about this. I'm not sure why it happens or how to stop it, but it looks like you're not alone. Good luck!

Answer

Try massaging your armpits beforehand to loosen up the milk.

Answer

That happens to me too.

Answer

Milk ducts do exist closer up towards your armpit, so it is possible you are feeling the milk drop

Answer

It’s prob just your letdown. Some women feel theirs and some don’t. That’s really odd. Havebyou asked your dr about it?
