i've started weaning dd (6m) and she's been really grumpy today due to tiredness and constipation - so not fed as much as usual. the pain in my right boob started this afternoon in retrospect and is now killing me. there's a discrete area of swelling which really hurts. have tried hot flannelsand bath plus massaging, expressing and taken some ibuprofen. i really don't want to end up with mastitis and in any case i'm in agony already! any top tips would be appreciated. (this comes after me posting on a thread y'day saying i was lucky enough never to have had anything like this in 6m of bf.....)
