Breast engorgement in bottle-feeding mothers can be alleviated by:

Wearing supportive bras is a practical method to alleviate breast engorgement in bottle-feeding mothers. A supportive bra helps to reduce discomfort by providing necessary support, preventing additional stretching and pressure on already engorged tissues. Proper support can help manage the physical changes occurring in the breasts, such as increased size and sensitivity, which often accompany engorgement.

While options like expressing excess milk, using a breast pump, or avoiding ice packs may also contribute to breast comfort in other contexts, they do not directly offer the same structural support and stabilization that wearing a supportive bra provides. Consequently, opting for a well-fitting, supportive bra is often prioritized to address the immediate discomfort associated with engorgement while facilitating normal breast health and comfort during the transition to/maintenance of bottle feeding.
