I took sudafed and put cabbage leaves in my bra. I had a good supply so I was pretty engorged. Just hand-expressed a little when I was super uncomfortable. I was super worried about getting mastitis, etc - but I was fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-stop-bfing#post-1456044 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 18:46:16 +0000 hilsy85 1456044@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Hm I think there is a no more milk tea, and you can also take sudafed. Cabbage leaves can help with engorgement! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-stop-bfing#post-1455846 Thu, 27 Feb 2014 17:24:41 +0000 MrsH 1455846@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm contemplating stopping BFing. At best LO is getting 6 ounces of milk from me in a 24 hour period. </p> <p>Since I don't have a huge supply I'm guessing engorgment and plugged ducts may not be such a huge issue but I would appreciate any tips you have that may make stopping easier or helps to prevent these things. My ob suggested just stopping (she didn't mention weaning) and I'm just worried that will cause clogged ducts. </p>
