No it's not harmful. You will probably want to work with a lactation consultant to relactate. You will want to use a dual electric pump every 2 to 3 hours for 15 minutes at a time. Every 4 hours overnight. You have to keep this schedule up to show your body to start breastfeeding again. To help your milk come in faster, use lactation herbs. Try Breastea from breastea.com it has increased my supply a lot. It will take a few weeks to get a good milk supply going again. In between pumpings, work on getting baby to latch back on the breast again.
