Hello I wondered if anyone has recently weaned a toddler and could offer me any advice?

My 2 and a half year old dropped her last breastfeed on christmas eve so it has now been nearly 2 weeks without breastfeeding. My breasts haven't been hard or lumpy but they seem possibly a little fuller than I would expect and if I try to squeeze the right aerola to see if any milk comes out it feels a little uncomfy.

I was fine when I weaned my ds at 14 months but as I have I have had an abscess on the left breast and mastitus on both sides many more times with dd I am a little more nervous. I have continued taking soya lecitin which I find keeps blocked ducts at bay but i am wondering if I should try expressing incase there is something going on? Please excuse any spelling mistakes and thanks for any suggestions x
