Question for the moms who didnt breastfeed....
For those of you who didnt breast feed, what did u do after delivery for your breasts as far as binding them until the milk dries up? I am not breast feeding and i have heard the pain in your breasts afterwards can be more painful than labor itself. And like when do u wrap them? right after birth? do u do it in the hospital? Will the nurses help? Thanks so much!

Yep on the second post partum day the nurse came in to help me bind my boobs. They were like rocks and they hurt.
You can keep ice packs on them to ease the swelling. I think I bound myself for about a week

I actually did not have to do much at all - I was expecting the worst, but they barely hurt at all and I wore my regular bra. They were mildly sore for 2 days.

It hurt but I didn't think it was awful but I have good pain tolerance. I would take some motrin here and there but not often. I just wore a tight sports bra for a few weeks with nursing pads and was fine.

Same here, but I still had the occasional leakage issue months later.
