Any Ideas?

I posted this earlier but only got 2 responses and I need help, Im in so much pain.
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?
Also when they say to wear a tight bra is that suppose to stop milk flow or whats it suppose to do?

it is supposed to stop the period of free flow...
try warm clothes.on your breasts..you could becoming engorged whichis painful....and try to breast feed a little longer if you can...
Im sorry you're having such a hard time

she\ll be ok if you switch to formula...when she goes down tonight run a warm bath and let your breast rest in the water.
I rememebr the pain of that, and it made me nauseous too but it turns out i also had a n inner ear infection....
