It will take a little bit longer because you had been breastfeeding...;-) the cabbage leaves have never worked for me..I had to have my doc give me medicine..don't remember the name right now, but maybe talk with yours n see what they say..
Go buy some cabbage get it good and cold then put it on your boobs. It smells but works.
use ice packs for relief and its supposed to stop production too. other than that I'm not much help...
