Question
I have recently stopped breastfeeding and my breasts are very sore.
My daughter is now seven months and was breast fed exclusively until I introduced her to solids at four months.
It is only in the last three or four weeks that she has accepted any formula milk.
For the last week before I stopped feeding she was mainly taking one or sometimes two feeds from me a day.
My breasts feel full but I am concerned that if I try to express milk I will just continue to produce more milk.
There seems to be plenty of advice for women starting breastfeeding but nothing for stopping.
Please can you help?
