I had a 104 fever this afternoon. I hope you feel better! I'm on amoxicillin which my doctor said is okay for baby. Also, I hope you have some help! DH had to take off work just to be home with me today. Not fun! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203825 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:47:54 +0000 Andrea 203825@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>That sucks, feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203821 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:46:08 +0000 Mrsbells 203821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Awww hope it clears up asap! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203816 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:44:20 +0000 Mrs. Bee 203816@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsdaredevil: i still breastfed. i had mastitis twice with olive, but only took antibiotics the first time. i just took a lot of probiotics and gave some to olive too. very important so you don't develop thrush! antibiotics kill the good bacteria as well as the bad.</p> <p>here's a post i wrote on it: <a href="http://www.hellobee.com/2011/10/20/probiotics/" rel="nofollow">http://www.hellobee.com/2011/10/20/probiotics/</a></p> <p>good luck! mastitis sucks, but you will feel good pretty quickly once you take the antibiotics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203793 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:26:25 +0000 LAGS 203793@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh no, I hope you're feeling better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203786 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:17:52 +0000 Maysprout 203786@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If they knew you were breastfeeding they hopefully put you on something breastfeeding friendly. Check with your doctor and kellymom is a good resource too.</p> <p>Sorry, mastitis sucks, I had it when LO was 2 weeks, the good thing was my fever was gone within a few hours of starting the antibiotics and we just had a few snuggly days with a lot of movie watching/bed laying/daddy taking care of us. I took lots of warm showers and tried to express milk from that breast to keep from it getting too swollen. Baby was def more clingy too me, I feel like she could sense something was up. She also had a bit more runny poo, prob from the antibiotics but that was the only thing I noticed slightly different and it wasn't even that different. </p> <p>Best wishes for a speedy recovery! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203778 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 19:04:28 +0000 lemondrop 203778@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Check with the pharmacist, different antibiotics work different ways!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203775 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 18:57:33 +0000 cvbee 203775@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>you can still bf....i'm sure they will give you one that is okay for bf</p> <p>i am on antibiotics right now for my kidney and i can bf </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/i-have-mastitis-1#post-203769 Wed, 27 Jun 2012 18:55:38 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 203769@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Can I still BF while taking the antibiotics?
