DD was born 3 days ago and has been feeding ferociously on the colostrum - now milk has come through and my boobs are HUGE and so engorged, until the supply settles down, what can I do to ease the pain? Does a hot water bottle help?!

The only thing that worked for me was a green cabbage....get your DH/DP to go out and get one...they are smelly but work wonders promise!

I found expressing a bit out by hand helps too.
