They hurt because you're engorged? Before baby? Confused. Have u talked to your doctor about this before u began pumping? If u pump all of your colostrum before baby comes,  baby doesnt get the most nutrient essential part of your milk because your milk comes in... curious.

Hot wash rags on the breast feels good. Also if you let the shower run on them. Massage also. Are you actually producing milk? Maybe call labor and delivery or your dr and get some more suggestions. Baby needs the colostrum, it's the most important part of your milk. I wonder if it would come in after baby is born if your already producing milk?  The le leche league has a hotline you could call. I'm sure they would be tons of help also!
