Cabbage leaves really work.  I only had one day where I couldn't move my arms without my breasts hurting.  After that, I didn't feel like I was going to explode anymore.  Just place fresh cabbage leaves out of the fridge in to a sports bra/nursing bra, then leave it in for a couple of hours until it's all wilted.  Then change for fresh ones.  I know some people use Ace bandages to wrap their breasts around, but I just used a scarf.  It helped keep my boobs in place when I moved around/bent over, and it kept the leaves flushed against my skin.
I didn't leave them overnight as I had 2 dogs that would have loved to sneak a midnight snack.  Still worked.  2 days later and my boobs have already gone down in fullness.  The swelling is no longer up in my armpits and collar bone.
