How long until my boobs stop hurting? Stopped BF

[izzybizzybuzzybees]

Hi

I stopped feeding DS on Sunday. He is 9 months old and does not take any solids at all. Had been having one or two bottles of formula a day and I didn't express at these times.

My boobs are ridiculous, hard and lumpy and painful. I expressed a little off yesterday and that softened them slightly but today I can feel bits that are solid and some that feel like normal tissue. Is it worth just not touching them and hoping for the best?

I looked online for advice on stopping but Its limited and abiut rellacing a BF with FF. we couldnt do that.

How long until they go back to normal?

Anyone?

I'm not sure how long it can take, I guess it's different for everyone. Have you tried cabbage leaves or sage tea? And also expressing, just enough not to explode.
I had to stop expressing (DS never latched on so I kept on pumping) quite suddenly when DS ended up in hospital and one of the nurses told me about the cabbage. Saved my life!
