I recently weaned ds at 26 months and have not fed for two weeks now. Yesterday I woke up with sore lumps in my left breast feeling a lot like blocked ducts. I tried massaging and expressing in the shower, but in the past I have used a baby/child to fully drain the blockage.

I am concerned about expressing too much and stimulating supply, but also leaving the lumps could lead to mastitis. How much do I need to worry about expressing at this stage? Should I focus more on the lumps or on minimizing stimulation?
