I'm really struggling with the pain in my boobs as I'm trying to dry up my milk. Any suggestions to help?

Are you trying to stop milk production too quickly? Be careful as you can get mastitis. You should do this slowly and carefully to prevent engorgement which can cause the pain. It shouldn't be extremely painful 😕
