Quitting BF
posted 4th Dec
Can anyone give me any advice. I stopped bf about two weeks ago now but my boobs keep making milk. I finally gave in and pumped today. What am I supposed to do when this happens?

You're not supposed to pump. Get some cold, cabbage leaves, break up the veins and put them in your bra.

Seriously works! Drys you out and feels so good. I dont understand how and why it works but it saved my life when I was ready to dry up and was swollen to my chin and in so much pain

I would try the cabbage leaf suggestion. I actually always weaned by cutting a feeding out every 2 to 3 days that way I didn't get engorged like that and then normally by the end of the second week I am almost fully dried up. I can still squeeze some out though and it has been a couple months since I stopped with Harper. Same way after my first.

I took Sudafed to help dry my milk up. It dried up fast and there wasn't a ton of engorgement.
