All perfectly normal. As Oliwia mentioned clots are fine unless over 50p (although most my periods are way worse than that post baby 🙈) Boobs will calm down once demand is established. Personally I’d feed from one and pump the other (alternating each feed) that way your partner (if you have one) can do feeds and it also helps should you get any damage (also likely over the year or so) However like ALL advice just listen and then make your own decisions. People always mean well but you do what you feel is best. Things change, circumstances are different etc etc. You’ve got this! I also had to do those injections. I never understood how some injections hurt like made and others just don’t. 🤷🏻♀️ Congratulations! Our LO is 2 now and IMO it just get better ❤️
Congratulations on your baby girl! Sounds like it was quite a traumatic birth but I’m glad that you’re both doing well now. It’s completely normal for your breasts to be hard, swollen and potentially sore a few days after birth as that’s when your milk comes in. Mine were huge, I thought I looked ridiculous 😂 they should go down in a few days and eventually after a few weeks/months when your supply regulates they should feel more like they used to before having a baby. When it comes to blood clots I believe they’re normal as long as they’re not bigger than a 50p coin and if they are you should talk to your midwife/doctor about it.
