Is there such a thing as too hard/strong or too often breast massage? I often get lumps and ask my husband to massage them out so I don't get plugged ducts. Was just wondering if it could be potentially harmful.

The best way to relieve clogged ducts is actually to get your baby to latch on. Instead of massaging, you could get your husband could suck out the clogged ducts instead (sounds kinky, but actually not). Completely emptying the breast is the best way to soothe clogged ducts. If you prefer to massage out the ducts, get your husband to start gently and softly before slowly increasing the pressure instead of literally squeezing your breast. http://www.whattoexpect.com/blogs/motherhoodinthemountains/how-to-treat-a-clogged-milk-duct
