Is it possible to become engorged while pregnant?
I’m 34 weeks and leak a ridiculous amount of colostrum all the time, it seems like I leak as much and go through as many nursing pads as I did when I actually had milk and nursed with my last. This morning I woke up extremely sore & swollen, & they’re very hard & red like when I got engorged while breastfeeding. Can you get engorged during pregnancy, just from colostrum? Or is it just because I’m getting closer to my due date? I don’t remember hurting this bad last time! Is there anything I can do about it? My mom keeps telling me to use cabbage leaves.
you can become engorged with colostrum.. but be careful if you try to express some out.. you can cause contractions with the nipple stimulation.. defiantly tell your doctor..
