Hello,

I woke up this morning with a really sore right breast. I felt around a bit and I have a very sore, very hard lumpy bit, presumably a blocked milk duct. I just cant seem to make it go away. I have tried the following:
- feeding more often
- expressing (but I only got a grand total of about 10 ml)
- masssaging the lump
- getting in the shower and letting the water run over my breast while I massage and try to express
- heat pack on my breast
- different feedng positions
- going bra-less

What else can I try? I've been to see a midwife today who told me that my breast is fine and that I have cleared the blockage. But its still really painful and I can still feel a definate lump in there. Claire is being really funny on that breast too - she'll take a few sucks then give me a funny look as if to say "where's the milk?" I dont feel sick and I dont have a temp or anything.

Is there anything else I can do?
