A. Is there a swelling in your breasts? Apply cold compress to your breasts between feedings. It helps the swelling decrease and makes you feel good. Massaging your breasts helps in milk flow. Wear a correct fitting breastfeeding bra and avoid underwire bras. Express a little milk by hand as using hand expression softens the areola and helps the baby to latch on easily. Apply warm compresses, take warm showers or lean your breasts over warm water before you feed the baby can be very helpful.
