Breastfeeding

not a clogged duct?

i was wondering if anyone else experienced this...for weeks now i've had something that feels kind of like a clogged duct in one of my breasts but it's not painful and hasn't gone away. i forgot to ask at my 6 week appt. i think i will make another appt to be sure but i thought i'd see if you had any ideas..

Re: not a clogged duct?

  • It's hard to know without more information. I recently had a clogged duct that felt like a hard lump in my breast, it hurt to touch it (it felt really sore), and nursing on that breast was super painful. It was reminiscent of those first few days of breastfeeding when you're sitting there breathing through the pain. I massaged the area while breastfeeding, and also had my LO feed in different positions and made sure to feed only on that breast for a while while pumping the other side. Within 12 hours, it had gone away. GL!
