Add me to the mastitis club. I feel like I’m dying. I'm so sorry, it's horrible. I hope your antibiotics kick in soon.

Add me to the mastitis club. I feel like I’m dying. I’m sorry, I feel your pain. I felt better about 36 hours into antibiotics. Hope yours kick in soon!

So many of you with mastitis, I am so sorry. I hope the antibiotics kick in fast lemons, armpants. And sorry about the birth parents’ wish to stop breast milk, armpants, i was wondering if/how you were pumping for them since I remember they had to travel to come to the birth. Hugs

I'm definitely starting with anxiety insomnia. 3:30 and I can't for the life of me fall asleep.

I feel like I'm in a nightmare. Now have mastitis in both breasts. Plus the resume redness is spreading in the original breast. I'm calling my doctor when they open, I assume they'll want me to come in to get checked out.

Oh armpants that’s so rough, I’m sorry. I’m going out in sympathy with you ladies. Suddenly had pain in breast, fever and sick feeling for the last 5 hours. It’s midnight so I’ll go to the dr in the morning. First time for me. Not fun.

So sorry for the mastitis, armpants, lemons, gustierx. I hope it clears up quickly! It swept through my last bmb too, and it sounds just miserable. My milk just came in a few days ago and the ducts in my armpits are engorged! I think i remember feeling this before but i cant remember when. Ouch!

I know the first wave of ladies said this, but this is hard with a toddler! With my first I felt like my H was pretty attentive to me and helpful with the baby, and now he spends so much time dealing with the toddler I feel like I'm on my own with the baby, and I'm trying to take care of myself too. Thankfully I'm healing more quickly than last time, but still I'm not at 100% yet.

I ended up vomiting before I headed out today, and it was super acidic, so now not only does my stomach feel like poo, my throat is burning too. I'm hungry, but I also kind of don't want to eat in case I get sick again *sigh* 17 hours and counting.

Ugh. People are so annoying. My parents have been panicking the second they don’t hear from me. And they call 6 plus times a day. It is ridiculous.

This is the worst. I feel like my supply is dropping during all of this. It’s not even the boob that’s the worst. The fever/aches/chills debilitate me. Thank goodness for Motrin and MH.

My supply dropped initially too, but it seems to be recovering now. I’m on day 7 of antibiotics for reference. Just keep chugging water.

I hear you- were almost a month in and the toddler is finally starting to get back to normal(ish) behavior but I feel like the baby has been completely my responsibility. It’s hard, especially while recovering.

Thank god she goes to school during the day !

I'm going to have some soup and see how that stays down, and if it doesn't I'll probably call the hospital and see if I can come in tonight and get hooked up to the IV. I've only had some crackers and freezies since early this morning because of the nausea :-(

I was readmitted to the hospital. I came into my doctor with a fever of 103.4 and elevated blood pressure. No answer abscess yet thankfully, but widespread infection that needs i.v antibiotics.

That’s awful! Glad you went in though and you’re in the right place to be taken care of. Hope you’re feeling better very soon!

Board wide question: i am 99% sure I have a clogged duct on my right side, super painful lump, with a white spot on the nipple. I have been massaging all afternoon, with hot compress, what else can I try? Also hoping not all clogged ducts turn to mastitis 😬
