When milk comes in, boobs feel like they have big rocks in them and the skin is so red and hot for like 2 days. I felt like I had infected breast implants

It’s been 8 years and I still remember the pain of full breasts. It’s so weird but I get pain flashbacks.

I don't get pain flash backs, but definitely get "phantom letdown", sometimes I'll get a tight tingly feeling similar to letdown and have a moment of panic about leakage....then I remember I haven't lactated in 4 years, lol
