I actually didn't feel my letdown at first. Now it's a really sharp pain/throbbing sensation through my breast. Although, if I'm feeding, I usually don't feel it on the one LO is nursing on. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-207027 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 19:20:24 +0000 mrs. wagon 207027@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine was painful/forceful for several months before it got better. I would say maybe 4 or 5 months! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206639 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 13:17:24 +0000 prettylizy 206639@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would call it really uncomfortable, borderline painful </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206619 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 13:02:38 +0000 banana 206619@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yup, mine was semi painful but got better over time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206583 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 12:43:22 +0000 T.H.O.U. 206583@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine has gotten a bit stronger from pumping both sides. When I nurse on one side I feel it on the other. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206437 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 11:07:21 +0000 winniebee 206437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine has gotten more painful as time has gone on - before it was just more of a tingling! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206433 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 11:06:03 +0000 mrsjazz 206433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes! I also thought it was just me. It's weird because it didn't always seem painful--but that's when I was having major nipple pain and now that I'm not having that pain, the letdown is a little painful. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206421 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 10:59:07 +0000 jennylynn 206421@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@HeatherlovesKenny: that's how I would describe mine also.</p> <p>I thought it was just me! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206406 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 10:49:45 +0000 pelikila 206406@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>To me the sensation wasn't as painful as time went on. Maybe I just got used to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206389 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 10:42:01 +0000 HLK208 206389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! It's so odd to me because I didn't feel a thing when I breastfed DS but I do now that this is my second time breastfeeding. It's almost like a stinging feeling. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/painful-letdown#post-206363 Fri, 29 Jun 2012 10:33:07 +0000 winniebee 206363@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone else have a mildly painful letdown? Mine has always been a strong sensation/borderline painful! I think it's pretty forceful. </p>
