Mastisis
On Thursday night I was feeling some tenderness in my left breast. I thought that my bra might have been too tight so I said a prayer and went to bed. I guess I might have said my prayer a little late because when I woke up the next morning I was immobilized with pain. My left breast was swollen and extremely tender. I had a fever and my entire body was tingling. My husband wanted to take me to the hospital but of course as stubborn as I am, I said no. Now after how HORRIBLE yesterday was and today is not looking any better I wish I would have listened to him. Maybe sometimes he is right....SOMETIMES. :)

I had mastitis too. I took ibuprofen for my fever, grape seed extract every 2 hours for the infection, and pumped a lot. I also would let the baby nurse on that side in the beginning of every feeding when they nurse more vigorously. Hope you feel better soon hun, mastitis is horrible!
