Breastfeeding questions

Hello,
Hoping those more experienced than me
Can help with my questions.

  • baby is 6 weeks and I am exclusively
Breastfeeding, recently my boobs have been getting very engorged, especially Overnight and in the morning. I'm having to pump a little with my manual pump just to release the pressure (milk literally flies out of them!) when will this stop?
  • when does leaking stop? When can I expect to stop needing breast pads? I find overnight they end up in the wrong place and I end up soaked.
  • when should baby start going longer between feeds? At the moment we are on about 2 hours.

I love feeding my baby, but finding it hard going right now 😭
