the only thing you can do is express for comfort overnight until your supply adjusts. it won’t take long for it to adjust. you are lucky that your baby is sleeping overnight without it! take the sleep! don’t leave it all night at first as your boobs aren’t used to it so your risking clogged ducts but after a few days even if you don’t wanna get up just hand express in a muslin a bit of you don’t mind wasting a little it’ll soon adjust xx

Pump and freeze

Question how do you ladies do this post? I want to do one asking if anyone wants baby formula

Me rn 😩

I pump

Hot showers and express

You can hand express a small amount to make yourself comfortable but not too much. Your supply will adjust.

I usually wake up twice a night to pump. I wake up really engorged as my baby sleeps longer stretches
