OMG the pain!!!
I have stopped pumping completely and it's been about 48 hours! The pain is unreal....and my breasts are huge rocks. Is this normal? How long will I be suffering like this at this stage. This is awful, I don't know how I will handle this all day.
I am using ice packs but it's not doing much!

Re: OMG the pain!!!
im not really sure what the right thing to do is, but i think if you are in that much pain you should pump a little to relieve it. you could end up with an infection.

I was pumping 2x/day for 30 minutes. Then did 2x/day for 15 minutes for a few days and then did 5 min for a day and then stopped two days ago. I need to travel next Monday and didn't want to be dealing with this. Was I too aggressive?

Re: OMG the pain!!!
Sudafed will help dry you out.
Motrin for pain and swelling. Pump *just* a little to give you some relief.
It should only be another day or two before you're feeling better.
If you develop a fever or chills.

Re: OMG the pain!!!
Thanks for the advice. I pumped for 10 minutes to relieve the pain. I'm just not sure for how long do I do this and when to I just deal with the pain.

Thanks! I'm going to go get some sudafed. It took 3 minutes just to get anything out when I started pumping.

This is what I did when I was done nursing. It helped relieve the pressure just enough. It only hurt for maybe 3-4 total days and then my girls were back to normal.

Re: OMG the pain!!!
I was in pain for 5 days and I literally wore a sports bra and stuffed ice packs in it.
Manually expressing helps too.
The pain will go away in a couple of days.

Quick! Run out and get a savoy cabbage and stuff those leaves in your bra. Honestly, they do work!! Good luck!
