Fingers crossed Tuesday brings some relief!

When DS was about 5 months old he bit me and my nipple got terribly infected, I ended up with blood poisoning and a severe case of mastitis. It took several courses of antibiotics to get over the infection, but to be honest (and very sorry to say this) it probably took a couple of months before I was completely pain free feeding again. I continued to feed DS despite the excruciating pain but only because I was so bad at expressing (it took hours and I didn't ever have enough to actually satisfy DS) I HAD to feed him. I found I had to switch sides frequency and take little breaks, and once my nipples were healed enough, I smothered them in Lansinoh. Like you I wondered if I had vasospasm, though I didn't seem to display all the symptoms my nipples were certainly tender for some time.

You're doing a great job to get this far, hopefully not long now xx
