I would play it by ear...not sure how hot it is by you, but if you're feeling much better this afternoon and you can stay mainly in the shade and hydrate, I personally would go to the beach (even though the smarter thing would probably be to stay home and rest, lol--but who can miss a beach day with LO?!). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-912059 Mon, 08 Jul 2013 08:24:33 +0000 hellobeeboston 912059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OK - next morning feeling much better. Still off, but WAY better than yesterday - good thing for starting my new job tomorrow.</p> <p>So - better to stay in AC and rest today? Or would it be ok to rest most of the day then go with LO and nanny to beach in heat later??? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911243 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 16:49:35 +0000 hellobeeboston 911243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hilsy85: the trip was awesome! I only had one minor freak out the first night and was talking about flying home. DH was great. </p> <p> i soooo hope I feel better in 24 hrs - this might be the worst I have ever felt... I am allergic to lots of antibiotics so she gave me one I know is oK and she said it wasn't her first choice... </p> <p>My whole head feels like its in a fog and I think the clog is really deep in my breast... Not the way I wanted to en my vaca, oh well! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911166 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 15:46:12 +0000 hilsy85 911166@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I felt soooo muh better 24 hours after I tarted the meds. I hope you feel better soon! How was the trip?? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911139 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 15:20:09 +0000 travellingbee 911139@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes I nursed and pumped a lot and the antibiotics kicked it very quickly. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911137 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 15:16:40 +0000 MamaBehr 911137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I had it I nursed and pumped, in effort to empty each breast. I also was taking pain meds and ibuprofen because I got it close after I had my c-section. The ibuprofen helped SO much with the pain and the fever. The antibiotics worked pretty quickly, I was feeling much better in a few days. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911090 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 14:15:42 +0000 hellobeeboston 911090@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LaineysMom: thx, me too!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911083 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 14:10:53 +0000 LaineysMom 911083@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@hellobeeboston: I have no experience with this, but I do think you're supposed to nurse more.. I hope this clears up for you soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-advice#post-911057 Sun, 07 Jul 2013 13:42:12 +0000 hellobeeboston 911057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just was away from LO for a week on vacation and was pumping &amp; dumping while away to keep up supply. The last 2 days of the trip righty got clogged and sore but I thought I was able to clear it up.... Got in last night, woke up this morning and came down with a 101.6 fever/aches/chills/headache/sore &amp; tired - like, hit me in 10 minutes! My right boob is a little sore, but not terrible - no redness. But achy. Suuuuucckkksss.</p> <p>Just spoke to the doc on call at my practice and she thought it sounded like mastitis and is calling in antibiotics.... She said warmth and nursing, anything else?</p> <p>I was trying to get to just nursing morning and at bed, but I feel like I should nurse more right???</p> <p>What else? Hoping it clears fast - I feel awful and start a new job on Tuesday!!!!! </p>
