Op here. I’m doing okay. I bought a cabbage cream from Amazon and have been taking pain meds around the clock. It’s not comfortable sleeping because my breasts are so swollen but it’s better than sleeping pregnant.

I did absolutely nothing at all and it was fine. Actually way less uncomfortable than with the babies I breastfed. I think because he never latched and I never pumped or anything my milk didn't really come in strong. I was surprised because I've had oversupply with previous babies and I was anticipating it to be awful.

No pumping, no expression of any sort, just wore a tight sports bra for a week and had no pain or issues.

Don't they have a shot for that?

Congratulations on your new baby. Hope the Sudafed has worn off.

Op here. I ordered cabbage cream from Amazon and I’ve been using ice. I also stopped pumping. I pumped for less than 24 hours. Hope I don’t get an infection. It was a hard decision but know for my physical health and mental health it’s a better choice. I’m having a hard time sitting due to joint pain and hemorrhoids.

Op here. The Sudafed gave me heart palpitations. It was scary. I started pumping because I’m scared I’m going to get mastitis. Wish they gave a shot. It looks like they do this in UK still.
