You can always hand express it. Like farmers and cows.  My ex mother in law used to do that when her children were little.

Warm wash cloths worked for me! And Tylenol cause they have to dry up don't pump or they will keep making milk!

If you pump the milk it will continue to come and wont dry out... The best thing to do is ice packs
