Engorged...

Omg, I'm 3 days pp and my milk came in yesterday and I'm dying. This is my third and it's usually pretty uncomfortable, but I struggled to sleep last night because of how swollen and sore I am. 😫 My breasts are enormous and I made the mistake of going to bed without a bra and breast pads, because when I got up to feed Lucas the bed was drenched. I just don't recall it being this bad with my other two. I'm gonna start offering to nurse random strangers to get some relief, OMG!! My husband even looked at them and commented on how painful they looked.

Pump it out. That's the best way to get relief in between feedings without wasting.

I covered my breasts (not nipple) with cabbage leaves from the fridge. It felt good!

That’s how I felt around 3 days pp as well. I remember feeling a lot better the next day though. Hang in there!!
