Hi All, Today I have had a hard breastfeeding day with breast lumpiness gone mad. Baby, massage, pumping and heat would not shift a 10cm+ disc of hard terrain on my left breast. So saw a GP this arvo and she sent me for ultrasound at the physio which softened a little. I came home and fed the now famous Alec (!!) and it has come away remarkably well. Hideously painful at the beginning of the feed and all nice and soft and comfy now! Love that ultrasound treatment... and of course, the delightful bub!
Despite the large area of blockage, the redness had only just begun to manifest over a small area when physio treated it, at 5pm this evening (I first noticed lumpiness overnight). My question is I have a script for a/biotics, I would rather not take them if not necessary and I thought I would trouble the list for your opinions (unless medically inadvisable) as to whether they're necessary. I didn't have a fever and apart from a very sore boob (which is no longer sore now the little bloke has drained it) I haven't been feeling dreadful - just a little weary. Just wondered whether I ought to take the drugs still? Jo -- This mailing list is sponsored by ACE Graphics. Visit <http://www.acegraphics.com.au> to subscribe or unsubscribe.
