Getting engorged again...whats going on?

Hello I'm still nursing my 15.5 month old. For about three weeks now, we've only been nursing every night at bedtime, occasionally before dinner if we don't eat right away and at naptime on the weekend with an occasional extra session or two those days as well.

This has been working fine for a few weeks, with feeling mildly full in the morning the first few days, but gradually decreasing. Suddenly the last couple of days I've been seriously full in the morning again. Like to the point of being pretty uncomfortable. I'm sitting here at work thinking I may need to hand express. I haven't done that, or pumped in nearly 4 months!

I'm not sure what to do. I'd go back to nursing her in the morning but she's been sleeping until I wake her literally 10 minutes before we leave at 650. Her bedtime us 730, with the routine starting by 645, I can't really move it up, as we are not home until 515 or 530 and have to do dinner and everything.

Should I stop nursing extra on the weekend and just nurse at bedtime? Should I wake her earlier?

Any thoughts or advice are greatly appreciated.
