Dear Lynbrate user There is no need to stop your breastmilk Just extract it when you feel that your breast is full and discard it because after 4 to 5 days you will be feeding your child. Then it will be difficult to restart . For pain take some analgesic.put hot water dipped towel on your breast and then massage it downwards and then squeeze to extract milk. Water should not be too hot it should be bearable This will surely help you. Happy motherhood

You do not need to stop lactation. Just express the breast milk as frequently as you can. There is no substitute to breast milk. Your baby will need the same when he comes back to you. If you do not do that, your milk production will automatically stop.
