clogged milk duct

i had my first clogged milk duct this morning- um, it sucked. and this is what happens when the clog becomes un-clogged:

milk on the counter. that's right- after hours of hot water, massaging, heating pad & cussing- i noticed a drip drip drip as i leaned over the counter- i started hand expressing & WALLA! out it came. it was super.

this will remind me not to half ass my pumping sessions in the future. for real.
