I did just get the breast infection, mastitis. Sucks that I cant feed on that side for a few days and all the milk goes to waste. I read on webmd.com that you can still feed on that side but the ER doctor said not too. So I called my lactation consultant to see what she says. Just waiting for her call back.
Well the little one needs her diaper changed. I will try to post more, it might just be a picture blog for a little bit till I can get in the swing of things! :)
Thank you all for the warm wishes! It means a lot to me!
This melts my heart <3 |
Fresh out of the womb and first bath! |
First trip out! |

What a cutie pie! Huge congrats to you!
1. im happy you're doing great!
2. i love her hair
2. i always heard you're supposed to feed through the infection.... even though it hurts hurts hurts.
The best way to get over a breast infection is to nurse nurse nurse on that side! Baby will get everything going well. And yes, it's okay. Check into your local La Leche League or check kellymom.com.
If you don't nurse that side, the infection won't go away or may come back.
Anyways, congrats she IS beautiful!

Thanks Ladies! I called my lactation consultant and she said I could continue breast feeding through the infection. Whitney I love that website it has helped me so much!
Breastfeeding has actually been really easy for me and does not hurt as bad as I thought it was going to. I have enough milk I feel like I could feed a village lol
