No redness or fever yet. I will try to pump/feed more and heating pad! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/booby-pain#post-74721 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:53:51 +0000 BabyLove 74721@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree, it could be mastitis. Sorry you're having such difficulty! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/booby-pain#post-74703 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:47:39 +0000 banana 74703@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sounds like clogged ducts that could lead to mastitis. :( If you end up getting a fever/body chills, call your doc right away because it could be mastitis (breast infection). They'll give you antibiotics, which you can still take while bfing. The 2 times I had mastitis, they both started with painful boobs/clogged ducts. Keep massaging and pumping/bfing. Try using a heating pad and also take a hot hot shower and massage. Sometimes if you can unclog it, it'll resolve on its own. Otherwise, could lead to mastitis. Do you see any red patches on your boobs? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/booby-pain#post-74700 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:46:42 +0000 shellio 74700@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you've had fevers or felt flu-like symptoms, it could be mastitis. How long have you been breastfeeding? I know that for the first 4-6 weeks, it felt different all the time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/booby-pain#post-74693 Tue, 14 Feb 2012 15:42:42 +0000 autumnlove 74693@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have been experiencing a lot of sharp shooting pains and clogged ducts the past few days. I've tried hot compresses, massaging the area but it still hurts a lot to pump and breast feed. Could this be something more than clogged ducts? </p> <p>I called my Dr but they just told me to stop by urgent care if it is bothering me so much. I might go by tonight when DH gets home from work </p>
