I also swore a blue streak while she ate! Not to scare you but try to take probiotics, yogurt etc to avoid thrush - it's even worse than mastitis!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562525 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 17:15:24 +0000 Alivoo01 562525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Haha! I'm sorry. I'm not laughing at you because I know you're in uber pain, but the fact that your LO thinks your breathing techniques are funny makes it so cute and why us momma's tell ourselves everything is so worth it for them.</p> <p>Hope the antibiotics kick in soon and whisk you to full recovery soon!!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562450 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 16:12:20 +0000 blackbird 562450@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Feel better soon! Sounds awful and I hope it goes away quickly! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562388 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 15:44:37 +0000 keiki_mama 562388@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You poor thing. Hope you feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562385 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 15:42:08 +0000 prettylizy 562385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Boooo!!! Good call on the breathing techniques though, that's a great idea. Good luck mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562369 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 15:30:57 +0000 Maysprout 562369@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm sorry, that sucks real bad. I'm glad you got on antibiotics now though. I had it when LO was 2 weeks and started to feel better pretty quickly after starting them, though hot showers were a blessing for a couple of days. Hope you have time to get some rest and feel better soon! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/mastitis-round-two#post-562347 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 15:21:12 +0000 DillonLion 562347@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Came down with mastitis on Friday (fever, chills, red streaking on breast, large red area on breast, whole breast very sore)</p> <p>By Saturday evening I felt 100% normal after massage, applying heat, and constantly nursing. I opted not to take the antibiotics. Big mistake apparently.</p> <p>Today I'm running a fever again. Have a terribly sore breast and feel miserable again. </p> <p>I started the antibiotics. Nursing feels almost as painful as labor, so I'm using the same breathing techniques to work through the pain. LO thinks it is hilarious. I'm less amused. Humph. </p>
