Engorgement sucks!
I'm a single mom of 2, my oldest is 5 years old and my youngest is 3 weeks old. I'm unable to actually breastfeed due to overactive let down and the fact that I produce twice the amount of milk most other women do at this point so I pump and bottle feed my LO so she is still exclusively on breast milk. My problem is that because I'm producing SO MUCH milk and finding the time to pump on time is almost impossible due to me parenting 2 kids alone I become engorged on a regular basis (at least twice a week)
Does anyone have any tips on how I can try to lessen my supply a bit or some way to help the pain? It gets so bad sometimes that I can't even hold my baby cause my breasts hurt so bad.
