DD2 is nearly 1mo and ebf. It's a very different experience to bfing DD1, going very well.
However, I seem to have too much milk, if that's possible. She gets good feeds and is very good at latching on etc. Loads of dirty and wet nappies. But I still feel quite 'full' after lots of feeds, and my right boob has started feeling sore. I've taken to expressing after a feed as I'm rather concerned that this could lead to mastitis.
Should I just go with this and enjoy the fact that I don't have the evening cluster feeds to contend with? I assume that trying to reduce supply at this stage is not a good idea, but I'm actually in discomfort quite a lot (swollen leaky boobs etc) and would appreciate some advice on dealing with this.
