Sore breast? Mastitis now?

hi all. I suddenly have a red breast that feels like I got punched. Anyone had anything like this? My lo is 8 months and bf and eats a ton of food. This sucks and hurts. :(

Re: Sore breast? Mastitis now?

  • I've never had mastitis but it sounds like it. I would get it checked out as the condition can go downhill very rapidly. If you feel a clog maybe try hot compresses and hot showers and extra nursing. If you develop a fever or flu like achiness definitely see a doctor immediately, you'll need antibiotics. Hope it's not mastitis. GL
    Me 26 DH 31. Off oral contraception since 1/2012. Actively TTC # 1 since 4/2012. CD3 bloodwork, hsg normal 6/2013. SA performed 7/2013 - low count, low motility. First RE appointment 9/4/2013. Were told SA not good enough for IUI. Repeat SA and additional bloodwork ordered. RE suggests DH see a urologist. http://www.fertilityfriend.com/home/3e32d9/thumb.png
  • It could be. Maybe you reduced breastfeeding recently.
