Patient's question:
Third day, milk has hardened and the pain has subsided. How can I confirm that I am weaning? How many more days until it softens and becomes empty?Doctor's answer:
This is a normal phenomenon because there is usually milk sediment. Weaning typically takes about a week. As long as you haven't been infected, you don't need to worry. Don't squeeze it, but you also shouldn't eat the milk. If the pain is too severe, you can gently express some milk. However, it shouldn't be completely empty or you can take weaning medication. For example, you can eat roasted malt or vitamin B6. It's recommended that if you feel very uncomfortable, it's best to go to the hospital for some medication.
