I slept in spare room while dh looked after baby for the night and fed ebm.

Absolutely exhausted I slept 7 hours but was aware how hard and sore my boobs where getting, woke up and breast pads soaked through.

Now, I keep getting very hard full boobs (sometimes tingly) even during the day in between feeds, is this all normal?

thanks

Yep, normal. You are engorged from missing feeds. Massage where the lumps are to ease them.

I'm afraid you're just going to have to feed her every 2 or 3 hours during the night till she's a bit older...
Hang on in there it will get better
