Baby is now two weeks. I have never breastfed. Milk came in on day 5, they were very sore day 6 and 7. Since then they are fine but still throb and produce milk but are not full. I was told by MW they'd be dry by day 10.

Similar position here. Just waiting for milk to dry up.

My midwife said that it’ll take time. I’m on day 9 I think. Dd is 11 days old. I bf for the first two days. I’m hopeful that in the next few days it’ll be gone.

Think it took about 2 weeks for me but it barely anything on the breast pads the whole time just a small yellow spot.
