I've been having this sharp, stabbing pain deep in my right breast ever since DS was born 4 weeks ago. It's randomly through the day, not liked at all to feeding times and only between feeds.
It's not agony, but makes me wince and it's very short and sharp, there one second gone the next. But it can come quite frequently at times.
I don't think we have nipple thrush, my nipples are not really sore apart from a sometimes dodgy latch ( a far cry from the agony before Tt was cut). DS usually has a white tongue but ten he feeds v often still so is probably just milk?
What could this be if not thrush, and if it is hat treatment should I be asking for?
I think it's probably relevant to point out I had one dose of IV benzylpenicillin (sp?!) during labour for Group B strep and have een taking pro biotics since birth to prevent thrush but obv not fail safe!
