Any chance some of the breastfeeding pain could be related to injury due to poor pumping technique / fit?  I often see a relationship when there is also pain with pumping.

I saw you'll be applying heat before nursing.  Will you also apply heat after nursing?  That is often the time to relieve a vasospasm.
