Mastitis is no fun (it sucks) and after 15 months into my second nursing journey, I figured I wouldn't ever experience mastitis again. Well, I was wrong. In today's episode, I share how I ended up with mastitis and what I did as an IBCLC to have myself feeling back to normal in 48 hours without antibiotics.
In today's episode I cover:
What mastitis is
How I ended up getting mastitis at 15 months postpartum
What mastitis feels like
My treatment protocol for myself
The Academy of Breastfeeding Medicines' treatment protocol
