On the second or third day after birth you will experience some degree of engorgement. This is due to a gradual build up of fluid that causes your breasts to swell and become somewhat warmer. This kind of engorgement is physiological and a positive sign as it tells that the milk is "coming in".

Continue to breastfeed frequently and unrestrictedly. The physiologic engorgement does not mean that you have an oversupply and it is important to have the baby frequently drain the breast to avoid problems with a pathologic engorgement.

Sleepless nights
HELP!!!

Our 14 month old son has, for the last 3 weeks, woke during the night crying. Since then we are only getting about 2 hours sleep a night and we are absolutely exhausted.(his cot is our room and previous to this he was a great sleeper.) The only thing that settles him is letting him sleep with us . I know this can be dangerous and we dont actually get any sleep as we are so scared that we will suffocate him. On a health vistors advice, we tried controlled crying which was very difficult and upsetting for us all. Even after 3-4 hours of crying he still wouldnt settle and it would wake our other 2 older children. Having spoken to a different H.V since, they have suggested that we wont solve the matter unless our son is sleeping in another room away from us. we only have a 3 bedroom house so he will have to share a room with his 12 year old brother. Does anyone have any views if this may work?
