Hi Anne, I am going to suggest that if you truly think this is engorgement that you try the *salad cure*: Using green cabbage leaves on the breasts to reduce engorgement and elimanate the milk. I have not tried it during pregnancy, so if anyone else out there has, please correct me if I am wrong. We have discussed cabbage on Lactnet before, but if you want any more info, let me know. Good luck, Yaffa \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\ Yaffa Stark, MA, IBCLC Los Angeles, Calif., USA "We must identify and reduce barriers which keep women from beginning or continuing to breastfeed their infants."
