you poor love. you seem to have copped all the bad luck with breastfeeding.
Now from the nipple damage I think dose 4 of mastitis is starting..
Hope the poke root works!

Oh dear. Can you get into the antibiotics to help as well? Thinking of you

i would see another LC to give you a second opinion.![]()
I have to agree with HotI. You are having such a bad run - maybe another perspective from an LC would help?
Have you got lumps or hot spots in either breast? Why are you thinking mastitis?
I have the initial bruised tender feeling (like I'm sprained the underside of my breast) and the headache starting. It's how the other three times started. Now it's starting to get the red streaking. I'm hoping I can get her to drain it properly and the poke root will work.
I see the LC again on Thursday.

Ouch
Definitely get the feeds going. Drain that breast! Express if you need to! Massage, heat while feeding/expressing, use ice for pain relief after a feed if it helps.
Hope it all settles soon.
Just big
Hope it settles for you soon!
Lots of feeds and pump for a short time after feeds IF your nipples can handle it. You poor thing littleO- lots of hugs.
