Broken Titty Update

Two hours ago:
Headache. Heating Pad on my head now. And that's the heated rice sock tucked into my bra.
Why didn't anyone tell me my tits are the size of a po.rn star's? Jeezus. I had no idea. No wonder I've been getting some MILF looks from the ghetto guys.




Now, Sitting here with W2 asleep on my breast for the last hour doing that suck/sleep thing. Figured it was the best thing for my broken titty and he only slept in his crib for a 30 minute catnap so might as well ensure he gets sleep one way or another.

I'm so cold. The room is at 78 degrees and I'm wrapped in blankets head to toe with just my boob uncovered.
My hands feel a little numb.
When I think of food, my stomach tumbles.
This can't be good. Fuck.

When W2 wakes up I'm trying Poppy's suggestion of the broken titty dunking booth and after that calling the OB and my LC.

I'm wiped out and can't even *really* sleep because I should be pumping every 2 hours.

Fuckityfuckfuckfuck.

If you think you've got mastitis, please get yourself to a doctor for antibiotics. It can get very serious, very fast.

i agree. the fever symptoms are not good signs!

I also agree. I would skip the dunk and call the doc. If it gets worse (and it can) things go downhill really fast. A friend had mastitis and couldn't bf after...don't want to scare you, but take care of yourself fast. P.S. my boobs are huge too! :)

DITTO! That sounds like an infection. You have to get it treated. Sorry you are feeling so uck, but antibiotics should kick it down in a minute. Please call your doc asap!

I agree. I don't like the fever. Call the doc!

I would only echo the other comments, but want you to know that I'm thinking about you and hoping for a swift recovery.

Fever was how I knew I was in trouble, I was able to nurse the big guy and pump to get relief but if your boys won't nurse you need to either hook yourself up to your pump and stay there (I once pumped for almost 3 hours!) or go and get antibiotics. You can't afford to be out of commission for too much longer.

Hope you feel better soon.
