Amanda - I had mastitis last week and it is sooo painful. Feeding is the best thing for it but hurts like hell. If it's not better by tomorrow I would be going to the doctor's as they say that if you can't unblock the duct within 12hrs then you need AB, especially if the blockage is red, hard and hot. Hope it clears up by itself for you.

hj - Hope B is better soon, that sounds awful, poor little darling. Do you give her water as well as formula?

Just got Olive to sleep after 3hrs of trying. I think she's a bit unsettled cause of the formula and was soo overtired. The trouble is that I will have to wake her and give her another feed otherwise ahe will be awake in the middle of the night. She is supposed to have 250mls for her age but only drank about 80-100 each feed but I suppose it will take some getting used to and must be more filling then bm. She did feed more frequently though and she lets me know when she is hungry. She also only usually drinks 120-140mls of bm as well.

have a good night everyone.
