Girl Bedding Full

I have extremely full breasts but i cant breastfeed my baby and i don't have a breast pump. What should i do?
I caught the H1N1 virus and 4 day old baby girl is in the hospital due to high numbers of jaundice. I an home alon and i cant go any were. I ws put on bed rest. Is there a way for me to empty out my breasts?
For now, try to manually express your breasts. Here is a link explaining the process with diagrams:

Warm compresses or a warm bath or shower will help. But 4 days post-partum is when engorgement starts to get really bad - expect to have very uncomfortable breasts and quite a bit of leaking for a few days.
But you can't usually get a lot out of your breasts by hand-expressing. You can do enough to ease the pressure, but not enough to keep up your milk supply. If you plan to continue breast-feeding, I suggest sending a friend or husband out to pick you up a breast pump ASAP. My lactation consultants recommend Medela or Ameda (or Lansinoh - it's also made by Ameda) brands and say that the other brands are so bad that the Medela Harmony (manual pump) would be better than getting even a double-electric non-recommended brand. The Harmony is about $35. I'm actually surprised the hospital would not provide you with a pump if your baby is hospitalized.
You can use this product selector tool on Medela's website to decide what Medela pump is right for you so your husband will know what to get: http://www.medelabreastfeedingus.com/product-selector
