Sweet mother of engorgement

My 4 week old just did a 6 hour sleeping stint YAY but I have woken so freaken engorged in one breast I felt like I was going to fall over side ways!

The other thing that worries me is LO fed off the engorged side for his last feed before going down. How long is this likely to happen before my breast corrects its supply because damn it hurts and I don't wanna get into a habit of expressing in the middle of the night.

I hate waking up with that feeling! My LO slept through for 7 hours at a time for 2 weeks and my supply never corrected itself, i was always very engorged when i woke! xxx
