Second day. I was engorged too much and bub wasn't drinking lots...only 5 minutes every 2 hours so had to pump a bit for relief which didn't help. Went for ultrasound treatment in the end.

Hi mummy! I was breastfeeding my older child who was coming 2 years until the last trimester of pregnancy so my breasts have milk all along. The supply was very very little though. I had colostrum and quite a lot on first day of delivery, and became engorged by 2nd week. I can pump out about 100ml. I treat engorgement with direct latching all the time, no pumping, and cold cabbage leaves, and then by end of 2nd week, I get soft breasts with lots of milk. I had over supply problem with my first child so I was dying to avoid that.

My breasts feel lumpy and areola area already engorged even though I'm due in Dec..
Nipples quite painful too and when I squeeze I only see whitish fluid not yellowish milk or colostrum I guess..
Any mummy applied hot towel or massage breasts and nipples from 36 weeks onwards?
