Breastfeeding

If you've weaned before come in please..

How long did you have hard and lumpy boobs for after weaning? I slowly weaned myself from the pump at work as recommended. I then nursed DD AM/PM/overnight only for a few weeks. I stopped overnight and AM nursing sessions next. I did the bedtime nursing only for about 2 weeks and last Friday was the last session. This is full day #4 and my boobs are still hard, lumpy, and sore in some spots. I was taking Sudafed twice a day but I stopped today because it made my head foggy. I'm doing Ibuprofen and cabbage (although I haven't done cabbage yet today). Some spots are so hard that milk comes out just by lightly pressing on the spot.

Just wondering how long this lasted for other mom's who have gone through this before.

TIA.
