Cheryl,
I was going to suggest the same thing...I know it's uncomfortable, but pumping is probably the last thing that you want to do. That will only encourage your breasts to make more milk. I nursed three kiddos and was at one time studying up to become a lactation consultant. I know that you're not biologically female, but I would think the same idea would apply. Cabbage leaves and a tight bra are probably your best bets and if it doesn't stop, I would definitely see your doctor.
