Unfortunately you just have to put up with being sore/uncomfortable until your milk dries up. Make sure you get some breast pads as you will still leak until your milk disappears, and you don't want to stain any of your bras/clothes
No they don't give you anything now. They found that those shots actually made it take longer. And you CAN get relief from hot showers and pumping but it will just make you produce more.
My mom said they use to give you a pill to dry up your breast...
Well not taking out the milk is going to hurt more your breasts get swollen really bad the only way they'll hurt a little less is if you take out the milk plus its way better for your bay but thats up to you
Dang... I think I want to bottle feed. I mean i know breast milk is obviously better but it seems like a tough process and painful.
Its all natural your body does it
They don't give you anything. Dries up on its own. I bought a tight sports bra to wear the first couple weeks because they hurt like hell.
My breasts swelled Up with milk after my son but dried up after a week they hurt though
Milk is only brought on by baby sucking, you may have the colostrum that may leak a little but not much. It probably wouldn't leak for that long if there is no stimulation from baby.
Do they give you anything at the hospital that makes you dry up?
Yes mine was still there for a couple weeks after I had my daughter
