Hi all, my LO is 3 mths old and due to shallow latch, nipple confusion and slow flow, I've started exclusively expressing milk and feeding her through milk bottle 1.5 mths back. However, few weeks back, I've been getting recurrent blocked ducts. I've tried all methods suggested including hot compresses, getting help from LC, engorgement massage ladies etc...it'd clear for a day or 2 and then come back again. One of the massage ladies mentioned that I'm not clearing my milk properly hence the repeated blk ducts and recommended me to use spectra S1. I'm not sure if I should still invest in another pump (personally I feel that I might not react well to pumps as I can only pump out abt 60ml and hand express out another 60 ml usually) so I've switched to doing full hand expression...however it seems like it isn't sustainable solution due to the recurrent blk ducts. Any mums experienced similar situation? Would changing of pumps really help? Any other solutions? P.s she also mentioned that it doesn't look like a milk thickness problem hence I've ruled out taking lecithin as a solution. Many thanks in advance mums!
