Hi everyone. Didn't think I'd be on this board for a few more weeks! My LO was born at 37 weeks on Sunday. He was in the NICU for a day or 2 so I pumped 2-3x while in the hospital and tried to feed him on the breast on day 2. He's been doing pretty well with it and I've been getting a good amount of colostrum/milk every time I pump for him.
But- my boobs HURT. They are rock solid, sore as hell and huge. Is this just because my milk is coming in and my body is adjusting? Will the pain subside? I took a warm shower this morning and then pumped. Will probably use a bag of veggies on them in a little bit to get them to feel better.
Does it get better ladies? Any advice/words of wisdom/support would be so appreciated at this point!
