In terrible pain. Have 5 week old on neonatal unit. Been expressing since birth and getting approx 1.5ltrs a day! Baby suddenly this week has taken off with breast feeding with help of nipple shield. Breasts very very engorged, hard and lumpy. Baby not taking off any where near what I was expressing. Trying to not express as will produce more milk but pain is horrific. Any advice welcome on easing the pain and engorgment without expressing. Worried breasts will burst!
