I can't get mastitis, I have a 5 week old and a 2 year old!
Breast is really painful. I'm trying to get ds to feed on it as much as possible this am but he keeps dozing off. His latch isn't great either as he doesn't seem to open his mouth very wide, I'm currently getting (very slow) advice about tongue tie, so this probably isn't helping the current situation.
I've tried massaging the hurty bit towards my nipple when he is feeding. I've got a hand breast pump somewhere upstairs, do I need to dig it out and try and drain my breast? What else can I do before I start feeling ill?
Any tips much appreciated, thanks
