So I have mastitis in my left breast. I've been really sick and it slowly seems to be getting better. I've been feeding DS lots on the effected side and the other and he just doesn't seem satisfied. So I pumped the mastitis side and got 100mls pretty quickly. This makes me wonder if he is sucking very effectively (we are using shields). Could the pump be better at removing the milk than him?
It was all going pretty well until the mastitis kicked in, he got back to his birthweight but now he just seems hungry all the time.
