Hi there, I am 38 weeks pregnant today with my 3rd baby, im getting slightly nervous about labour but more nervous about BF, both my elder children were on the bottle from about 6 weeks of age because i have not been able to handle the engorgement i get. My milk comes in pretty much on day 4, i am big breasted to start with, im currently an 18E, when my milk comes in my boobs turn into bowling balls, just as big and just as hard, im just not sure im dealing with my milk supply properly, i stay engorged for 2-3 weeks, and there is just so much milk, it is such a painful experience, id prefer labour, i normally start by doing the hot shower and then ill sit there with 2 bottle under my nipples catching the milk as it flows out, i got blocked milk ducts with last baby and we had such a horrible time. I really want to breast feed properly with this bub, but while there is alot of info for BF i have found none for women with larger busts, smaller nipples (in which my nipples turn to elbows when my milk comes in and its very painful to soften them up b4 each feed) or prolonged engorgement, can anyone shed some light or have any tricks of the trade, i want this time to run a bit more smoothly id be appreciative.... cheers!
