over supply and growth spurts

meredity11

I have been dealing with oversupply since DS was born (3/4).  

 I had FINALLY gotten to the point where I wasn't engorged all of the time and then little man went on a growth spurt.  He ate every 1.5-2 hours for 4 days.  (ouch).  Then he finally stopped and went back to his every 2-3 hours routine.  The engorgement is terribly painful.  I've done ice and heat but nothing helps.  It seriously feels like there are boulders in my breasts.  I have soaked the sheets for two night.  

Is this going to be the case everytime there is a growth spurt?  Is there a way to make it so my body doesn't create a huge oversupply every time he grows??
