Establishing the optimal milk supply for your baby is important but can take time. Over-supply can lead to breast engorgement. This can happen when not enough milk is expressed from the breasts or is exacerbated by blocked milk ducts. This can lead to breasts that may swell, throb and in some cases cause extreme pain. Untreated engorgement can lead to mastitis (inflammation of the breast).

Insufficient milk supply can also be a problem and is often the reason mother’s suspend breastfeeding their babies and decide to supplement with formula.

The Breastfeeding support bra can soothe the symptoms of breast engorgement and assist in increasing milk supply. The cold pack inserts provide relief to swollen and throbbing breasts and when heated can help soothe plugged milk ducts and help increase milk flow.
