Thanks all.

Surprised, mastitis 11 times?? Ow, ow, ow. Yep, it does seem often for her age but I still get quite engorged so tend to offer as well as feed on demand. I try to avoid having her snack as much as I can though, as it means my bbs are never fully drained - which I think led to the blockage. Appreciate your advice hon, many thanks.

'nutter, will do x

Barb, thanks for your reply. It looks like Cathy is in WA - I'm in Canberra, so it might be a costly home visit will try to find a local LC if issues continue.
