<< At least in the early postpartum period, it is my impression that though

but from the overdistended walls of the milk sinuses when the extra
stress of compression is applied. The pain goes away after just several
drops of milk are slowly and gently removed from each quadrant. >>
KJ, excellent point and well-said. Sometimes it's latch, sometimes it''s
distention maybe or both interacting...
