I'm 10 days pp with lo2. I got mastitis at 4 days pp last time well I thought I'd eluded it but I've now got the chills and feel horrible. I also thought it'd be a smart idea to go camping at 10 days pp and I've definitely overdone it, my pp bleeding is wway worse and I just feel bad. We're heading home now but what can I do to prevent feeling worse? I don't feel any clogged ducts nor red a red areas on the boobs. My LO has decided that eating is for the birds though
-
Yikes. I got a high fever with both kids about 4-6 days postpartum both times and my dr had to put me on antibiotics. It wasn't mastitis, but will prob want to call your doc.
-
Temp of 100.9 for mom, LO's is 99.5 and she's not eating for more than 5 mins. I'm pumping and am going to sleep for a bit then call
-
Temp is up to 102 for me so I called the hospital, I'm waiting for the on call dr to call back, I pumped for 20 mins and then Dia nursed
-
@jetsa: No advice, but I hope you feel better!
-
Oh nooo I hope you feel better soon! I came down with a stomach bug 10 days PP with a small fever
. Curl up on the couch and get some rest!
-
If you haven't gone to the hosiptal yet please go! My sil got really sick about a week pp and it turned out they left part of the placenta in which is dangerous.
Please post back to let us know you're okay! -
@turkeylurkey: @blackbird: @SeptMomma12: @matador84: I called the dr he said 2 doses of extra strength Tylenol and if the fever doesn't drop below 101 come in to the hospital; that's 5.5 hours from now

@jetsa: yikes! Hope you are feeling better
-
@jetsa: How did everything turn out? Hope you are feeling better!
-
Thanks ladies. The fever broke last night and I feel like myself today. I'm taking it easy to hopefully avoid it recurring. My mom comes today so hopefully that'll help.
-
@jetsa: oh good! Glad you are feeling better! Get some rest
-
@jetsa: glad you're feeling better! What a time to get sick!
-
@jetsa: wow, 10 days camping PP.. Take it easy mama!
-
@jetsa: glad you're feeling better!!

I've gotten mysterious fevers/aches/chills three times postpartum (in the last 8 weeks)! Each time, it lasted a day and I felt fine the next day. Very odd!
-
@renee: being postpartum is so random, that's exactly what happened. I did see on kellymom that, "mastitis appears to be the body’s way of telling mom to SLOW DOWN" so for me that made sense.
-
Went to the office today they called in 3 antibiotics because I don't "look" like I need IV antibiotics and the ultrasound was clear. The determination from a culture was a uterine infection.
-
@jetsa: I hope the antibiotics kick the infection! What a scary and stressful thing to go through so soon PP!
-
@jetsa: Hope you are feeling better!
