Doula Tip: If you (or your client) are struggling with plugged milk ducts, fill a crock pot with water and a few washcloths, cloth diapers, or hand towels to keep a steady rotation of warm compresses ready. If you don't have a crockpot, fill a disposable diaper with warm water, squeeze it out a bit, and put the inside of the diaper facing the skin- this will stay warm longer than a washcloth. ✨✨✨
If you've found some other warm compress tricks, share in the comments!
