NPR - gift ideas for mom with mastitis

My sister just had her 3rd lo (ages 3.5, 2, and 2 mos) and has severe mastitis, which morphed into a MRSA infection :(. She lives 4 hours away so I can't hey up there to help her with the kids until at least next weekend, but I want to send her something.... She won't want a housekeeper, and she made tons of freezer meals already. Any other ideas? Anything that might help soothe? she said it hurts worse than her med-free childbirths.

  • What about age approprate movies for the kids (older two) so your sister can have a little rest.
  • Loading the player...
  • I'd send her some gel breast soothies, some lecithin supplements (helped lubricate my milk ducts and prevent clogs/mastitis), and a gift card for whatever take out she likes. Hope she feels better soon! I had it twice and it was awful and debilitating. Luckily though for me, I felt better about 2 days into my antibiotic.
