I had lumps when overfull, esp on one side. I thought it was just one of those things?

lots of warm compresses then as cold as you can stand afterwards and keep up the nurofen another 24 hrs at least I would say....have you any chance of buying these:

my L side is getting lumpy at times when i need to feed...i would have had that last time with DD1....it eased as soon as i fed back then...i never worried about it but i'm paranoid now!

yes....i think i'll keep up the nurofen....i've been using these as hot/cold compresses....it sounds like the same as your ones?

How about feeding a touch earlier?  Is that a daft suggestion (Shiv will know)?

feeding sooner than the 3 hours you mean?as it is, i often have to wake DD for the feed!
(i don't wake at night though)

i think i was feeding all over the place (ie not doing one-sided feeding) so my boobs don[t know what's going ok, kwim?!!
