Ughhhh... I have a plugged duct.. I am dying for DH to get home (3:30) so he can watch the baby so I can use a heat pack and pump.
This stinks... a) I'm in pain.. b) it's not mastitis but I certainly need to make sure it doesn't turn into it.. and c) I don't want to end up in the ER on Thanksgiving if it turns into mastitis (assuming my Dr wouldn't be open). What a pain, literally!!! Hopefully a few rounds of heating and pumping extra will clear it up fast. I like how the instructions to deal with a plugged duct recommend extra rest.. hah hah!!
Re: Plugged duct
When I had mastitis I called my doc at 1am and gave them the number to the 24 hr pharmacy. I took my first pill at just before 2am
They shouldn't need to see you. At the first sign of a fever call and get started!
