I have a blocked duct. It keeps getting better, the worse. then repeat. I was called in an antibiotic yesterday. Today, I had the worst day of my life. Seriously. I was in THE WORST PAIN I have EVER been in. Giving birth (Medicated Birth, obviously) was seriously better than the pain I was in today ( Read more... )

Oh, Angie..I'm SO sorry. Seriously..absesses are NOT that common and it's incredibly insane for me to see that you're having the same problem that I did! I *KNOW* that it hurts and I'm not using this as an excuse to get him to the breast, lol but..have you tried that route? A baby is WAY more effective than a pump and if it's just a clogged duct, he may be able to work it out for you. Point his chin towards it and keep him there as long as he'll tolerate it, if he takes to it. I still get them..oh, about once a month and all it takes is for me to fall asleep with Avery nursing and it's gone in the morning. Sometimes though, it just doesn't matter what you do..it just doesn't go away and it SUCKS ( ... )

Seriously. I was reading about them and I'm like what the hell. They are REALLY not that common. and to know that YOU had one.. I'm like, WHY!!! lol ( ... )

I wouldn't really trust Joe Shmoe in the ER to cut my boob open. LOL. I don't care if they're a doctor..My boobies feed my baby so I want someone who specializes in boobs and learned about them specifically in medical school, lol ( ... )

lol. I wouldn't have let anyone cut me open. I would have went to GBMC where Doug works. He knows a lot of the surgeons and people there.

I actually feel a ton better since I was able to get some milk out. I might have been engorged from not being able to get the milk out earlier. I had the suction down really low because it hurt SO bad. but, turning the suction up and sucking it up seems to have helped.

Ive been taking ibephrophen to help. I took a leftover percocet (from delivery) earlier.. but it didn't help one bit!

Oh, and if you try to put him on there tomorrow, pump a little first because it helps to draw your nipple out and will make the breast softer for him to latch on to.

I've also seen people on LJ talk about having their husbands/SO try to get the clog out..a little too weird for me though, lol.

I have to go sit in the bathtub now because, if you haven't read my entry, lol..I'm having a similar problem. ON MY BUTT WTF. I wish I could go to the GYN for this one, lol, because at least they're used to seeing that area on a regular basis!

& my nipple isn't coming out at all. It looks like a donut. lmao. sunken in the middle and puffed up around the whole outside.

Angela, 10 years ago in the Baltimore chat did you ever think you'd be telling me about your nipples? LOL.

It doesn't even come out when you pump?!

Hope it continues feeling better and you get some permanent relief soon! I'm sorry that it sucks so bad. :(
