If you are not planning to breastfeed at all the best thing to do is wear a really tight bra and literally wrap yourself. Do not express any milk on purpose and keep yourself comfortable with Advil or other pain killers. In about 3 days your pain should be almost gone but you may notice milk leaking from your breasts for a little while. Just don't stimulate your breasts and the pain will go away faster! This is what I had to do with my first because I was unable to breastfeed him. I had to ask my Dr and this is what he told me to do. You can always look up how to dry up your milk on the net. I'm sure there are more ideas on there! Good luck. |
