Owwww!

I must be really lucky, or else some kind of freak. I have mastitis! Mastitis is most common within the first 4-6 weeks of breastfeeding. I have breastfed for two years now, Darius is eleven months old! My doctor was completely flabbergasted, I am too. And let me tell you, it hurts! Especially nursing him on that side, its like he is biting me every time he sucks. I feel a lot better now that I have been on antibiotics for 24 hours though. And he has a new cute trick. Sometimes when he is nursing now, he will unlatch and say "Ahhhh" like someone would do after a long, refreshing drink. It is very cute, and makes breastfeeding worthwhile again, lol.
