Mastitis

Gaaah. Last night, I pumped before bed, as I always do, and noticed there was less on the right than there was on the left. I didn't thinl twice about it. This morning, when I pumped, immediately there was a marked different, and a huge, hard lump on my right breast. I pumped that side for twenty minutes, trying to drain it to no avail. It is hot, it hurts like hell, and every little jiggle the skytrain produced, makes me wince. The skin is red, I feel like shit. Diagnosis = mastitis. Freaking fantastic!

I battled thrush with Jake, but never this. He was pro at draining both breasts.

All I can say is, hurry up Ellie, learn to breastfeed already! Oh, and OWWWWWWW.
