A must-see for lactating mothers: tips for relieving breast enlargement
Breast-feeding mothers, if you feel that your breasts are full and your baby doesn't suck much, this may be a signal of milk stagnation. Don't worry, we have provided you with several simple ways to relieve the discomfort of milk rising.

heat

Gently apply a hot towel or hand warmer around the breast, but avoid areola and nipple to avoid burns. This simple hot compress can help dredge the breast and reduce the feeling of breast swelling.

massage

After hot compress, you can hold the breast with both hands and massage alternately from the bottom to the nipple, 30 times clockwise and 30 times counterclockwise. If you are not sure about your own massage techniques, or feel troublesome, you can also choose professional gynecological massage services.

Take a bath

Soaking breasts with warm water is also a good choice. Bend your body to your knees, let your breasts completely soak in warm water in the basin, and gently shake your breasts. This method uses gravity to help milk flow out, which can effectively alleviate the rise of milk.

Breast pump

If the breast distension is serious and the pain is unbearable, consider using a breast pump. Both manual and electric breast pumps can help you suck out excess milk and avoid breast inflammation.

Cold compress

If the pain is severe, you can try cold compress. First use a breast pump to suck out the milk, and then use cold compress to relieve the pain around the areola. But remember, the water temperature should not be too cold at first, so as not to irritate the skin.
