Mastitis Sucks :-(

I woke up this morning and I just couldn't get warm. Ended up snuggling With D, with a comforter warped around my upper 1/2 (not over him). Woke but up, still cold so I took my temp 101.5 eww. Bottom of my left breast was killing me too! So I called and got an appt with my dr. sure enough its Mastitis :-( On anti-biotics for 10 days and motrin for the fever/swelling/pain. Good news is I caught it early so it shouldn't get worse,

  • Luckily it doesn't hurt when he is nursing. It only hurts when he headbutts my boob! which he does after he pulls off and goes 'looking' again.

    Sorry your boobies made you sick.  :(

  • That sucks.  I had it twice and it is the worst pain ever.  Hopefully you caught it early!  Nurse him as often as you can to help clear the duct.
