How long does it take for your breast to
stop hurting? I am 10 weeks and my breast
hurt so bad!

Your pg right, ok suggestion is first off
if your planning on breastfeeding I
wouldn't suggest doing this but if your
not then here goes...
Go buy a fresh cabbage from the store (
whole cabbage) take off first layer. Then
take off 2 large leaves ( whole if you can
if not no big) break but don't rip the
vains then place on your chest for an hour
or so repeat as nessassarry it takes pain
away but also does tend to help with
drying you up :cry:. But you can do it
once a day and have no worries about your
milk and what not. But its great if you
decide or baby decided he/she doesn't want
to eat.
Its a home remidy and old wives tale and
it works!!! Do it often if your not
feeding to dry up faster and releive the
pain. My mom and aunt told me about it
with my 2nd baby that wouldn't take to
the breast. 2 days of the cooked cabbage
and no more pain. Theres someing in it
that helps. And its heathy though I
wouldn't suggest eating it afterwords.
