My friend's baby was born in October. She's breastfeeding happily enough apart from at night. Her DS sleeps through and her boobs are huge at night and waking her up with the pain. She has to get up to express in the night. This interrupts her sleep and is getting her down. She doesn't seem to be leaking any milk in the night to relieve the pressure.
I know she's lucky to be producing so much but is there any thing she can do to be more comfortable at night? She feeds her son just before she goes to sleep but he only feeds from one breast at a time.
Would be grateful for any ideas.
