I am direct latching a 2 mth old and exclusively pumping for my 15mth old. I have been getting recurring blocked ducts. Usually, i'd just put on hot compress and massage it under hot shower thereafter. But the block ducts have gotten stubborn lately as i have not been pumping as we were out and about for the past 1 week. I wouldnt want to try the cold cabbage cos afraid it will affect supply as many mummies mentioned. Will calling a massage lady help? Any other tips u mummies can share? Also, any possible reasons for recurring blocked ducts even when i have been latching on demand? TIA MUMMIES! ?

A routine feed or pump session would help. Also try to constantly massage your breast especially the area with blocked ducts. That helped me. Before each feed or pump also massage for at least 15 minutes.
