My Boobs are about to burst!!

I hope you've been able to find some relief.

I use to pump straight after a hot shower with my manual pump but found I needed to massage the boob also.

Only problem with applying heat to your breasts is it can swelling which will make you more uncomfortable if you can't get anything else. Cabbage leaves were my savior in prior experiences (DS1 & DS2).

Hi,

How did you go overnight? Many mothers find that they have relatively too much milk for their babies in the early days. The rule is, whenever your breasts feel uncomfortably full, express some milk to relieve the engorgements. Use ice-packs after a feed to reduce the swelling.
