hey ladies..id love ur in put on this.
due to some physical problems, I was unable to nurse my sweet Charlie like I had hoped I could.
I have done everything I can think of to relieve the pain of not nursing. Hoping this isn't tmi, but one side is dry and normal, the other side is swollen hard and red. I have been stuffing cabbage in my bra until I feel like coleslaw with little relief. I get it to bearable and then take a shower (hiding my sore chest from the warm water) and it will get inflamed again. then, i cant hold the baby on that side and wearing a bra likes to be the death of me.
I don't know if its plugged ducts or if its the start of mastitis or if they are just really engorged (gosh i hate that word)
my question to you all...what have you tried or done or whatever to get some relief. HELP!!
hugs
jess
