Engorgement woes

Sigh! I’ve been struggling with terrible engorgement ever since going back to work. Before going back to work I was latching almost exclusively and pumping just once a day. Think my body is used to latching and her sucking is definitely stronger and more effective than the pump. When I wfo for just one day I immediately get engorged. I pump 4h intervals which is the same as her feeding intervals. It’s just so tiring to deal with painful boobs every week! Any tips? 😭😭😭 so unsustainable too cos I will rush home for her night feeds just so she can help me clear my boobs. Then proceed to do work again at night.
