Any ideas?

posted 3rd Aug
So I had my little girl 9 days ago. I was breastfeeding her but I have such bad after labor contractions when I breastfeed and pump that it makes me sick and I can't continue. My breast are so full and hurt so bad. Is there anyway to dry your milk up faster or stop them from leaking so bad? If not how long does it usually take for them to dry up?

just wear a really ithgt bra all the time. Try not to touch them or lay your baby on them at all because they will leak even more. once you get it under contol it might take about 3 weeks or longer. Just me I didnt breatfeed and it felt like I had rocks sitting on my chest.

I found that after 5 days of not doing anything, I pumped once. 3 days later I pumped once again, and it was less and less each time they were completely bone dry in 2 weeks but I don't know if that would work for you or not. I think part of the reason was because they were stopping production, and I'd only pump enough to let out the pain, but if you don't get it out it takes your body a while until it's absorbed it.
