Woo!...?
Turns out, I don't have mastitis, I have ductitis. Woo! I'm supposed to be massaging the area, manually expressing from it, and keeping it warm. I got something for the pain, but really there's nothing else I can do.
Bonus points to my doc for the use of the phrase, "I'm going to have to milk you." I don't have any (okay, 2, but big whoop) leukocytes in my milk, so no need for antibiotics, which makes me happy. Less chance of Mat getting thrush. 'Cause thrush AND pain in the tatas sounds like less fun than just one at a time.
In two weeks, I get my 9 month breastfeeding ribbon. I totally earned it this month. :D
