A. Hai good evening !! Due to lactation breasts become hard,heavier even leakage ,its common it is a sign of good lactation. You can also express out milk either manually by pressing or using manual/electric breast pump and feed to baby ,can store breast milk upto 6-8 hours in normal room temperature,in fridge more than 8 hours - two days.
