[...] Big, huge breasts – Just one of the joys of making milk is an increased bust size. For me, though, it means going from busty to freakishly busty. If your swollen breasts are hard, painful, or red, it’s time to get checked out for mastitis or “milk fever.” [...]

PS that was in response to me overdoing the use of pumping to relieve the pain,( I read to pump after every feed durign engorgement – and pumped both breasts right down – 4-5 oz each after each feeding!) it felt very good at first but totally exacerbated the situation despite Callums good and frequent feedings.

I later learned you are meant to only pump ONE ounce to relieve the pressure. This is easily done in the sink or shower – but you must also use cold to then slow it down otherwise it upregulates again!

Oh well- at least we have loads of frozen breast milk now!

I discovered COLD CABBAGE LEAVES!!! Read about it and confirmed by the la leche league consultant.

I would swear by it unless you are allergic to sulfa drugs (but no problems for baby). They contain a potent agent that soothes and slows milk production, so your pain is relieved – also by the cool temperature.

Warning! – you can not use this longer than 2-3 days at a time – it can actually drop your milk production.

Directions: keep a cabbage in the fridge , better yet, put pieces of leaves large enough to cover the nipple areola at least in a bowl of ice water in the fridge. Place them between nipple and breast pad between feedings. This is very very soothing, with an almost tingly anesthetic feeling and near instant relief!!!

My gosh! I don’t know if that quark treatment really decreases your chances of mastitis, but your skin must look great!
