I was on IV antibiotics that they said were contradicted (or something??) with bfing. I was also on tordol but I dont think that was the problem. I am bfing about once a day now, usually at night before bed but occasionally in the mornings when she first wakes up. But I think my supply is just about gone because I can rarely hear her swallow anything anymore. So we are weaning and she will probably be done soon. Makes me really sad, I was hoping to make it to 1 year at least.  But I am very glad we made it this far because I remember way back thinking if I could just make it to 4 months and then 6 months that I would be happy, and we did it so I should be glad I guess. I will say that bottle feeding is both a pain in the ass and also pretty convenient at times. I hate hate hate making a bottle for her in the middle of the night so I hope she starts sleeping through it soon. Oh and I think she has gained a lot of weight quickly since she started on formula so maybe it was a good thing for her since she had been dropping on the charts for a while now. Anyway thats where we are. I am still getting headaches but they are getting fewer and farther between. |

Well my mastitis is gone but over Christmas I got viral meningitis.  I was in the hospital from the 25th to last night. I have to laugh or I will just cry. I have had to pump and dump since then, and my supply is really low. I am torn on whether to just give up now since DD is taking bottles well or if I should try to nurse part time, like just at night and in the mornings. I dont know anymore. I am still sick and feel like shit, my whole body hurts so even if I could nurse (cant for another day or so), Im not sure I feel up to it yet. I guess I will see how it goes over the next couple days. Let me tell you though, formula poops are the nastiest shits I have ever seen in my life.   It certainly motivates me to keep bfing.

I think I'm going to call and beg for 1 more RX to just have on hand just in case it comes back.

OR say that the bottle tipped over into the sink that was full of water?

Can you ask your doc for another prescription and you can fill it before the end of the year?

[QUOTE=MamaKunt] I have been sick for the past 3 weeks with a cold and sinus infection, been under some stress and had a change in my nursing habits but nothing that I thought would trigger this.  [/QUOTEI'm sorry But that sounds like a recipe for a recurrent mastitis. I hope that your ABX kill it. Get better soon

What the fucking fuck? I have mastitis AGAIN.   I am so angry I could scream. I thought I was done with it! I have no idea what brought it on just out of the blue like this. It started yesterday and I am back on the last antibiotic that seemed to work (a sulfa one I cant remember offhand) so I hope it kicks this quick and for good. Im so fucking mad. Why why why why why why??? Im losing my insurance on the 31st and really dont want to fork out a fortune for myself for COBRA so this better be gone and over by then!  I have been sick for the past 3 weeks with a cold and sinus infection, been under some stress and had a change in my nursing habits but nothing that I thought would trigger this.
