Firstly u shouldn't let breast milk get collected in breast as it might lead to breast lumps and abscess , so after every 2-3 hours if ur baby is not drinking ur milk , u can express the milk and store it for the baby in the fridge for the same day and then u can warm  to room temperature and give the baby
