Need some help from my experienced breastfeeding moms: my son is 10 months so everything has been fine but past couple days one side just kills! I'm thinking maybe because he bit me on that side a few days ago but I'm also worried about thrush because the pain symptoms I feel sound like it? But idk. How do you tell if it's thrush or just nipple trauma??
Ya my husbands upset about it lol
My daughter really bit me bad one time n I felt pain for a week in my breast n my nipple still isn't the same n I get faint ghost pains in it...she's 4 now lol
@lelepatts as much as it hurts, nurse more often on that side. Happened to me and went away quick. But do get checked if you think it's thrush.
@varubio925 it was back in the breast at first but now it's mainly nipple. When it was really bad I thought maybe that was it and that night I checked nipple in shower & scrubbed it a little just to loosen up any grown over skin just in case. The next day I think is when it was no longer stinging in breast but only nipple. And pain no longer lasted as long too. So could that have been it? Still hurts bad when he starts though
Is it just the nipple that hurts? Or the breast? Ever think of clogged milk duck?
@cubanese what can I do as precautions until I can get checked out? Should I only pump that side and nurse on other side that doesn't hurt or what can I do to prevent spread to him and other side if it is thrush?
@cajunpeach89 he's sleeping now and won't let me get all up in there lol but looking at pics online I wouldve noticed it so don't think he has it at least
Dang I'm late to the party. Sorry i was making lunch. I think my sister handled this one 😉 good luck
@dedicatedtosavinglives ok I'm hoping it's just that. It just kills so bad! Like I'm being cut up from the inside! But doesn't last as long as it did just yesterday and day before
@cubanese don't think i really have any itching and he seems fine while nursing. It started as shooting pain from nipple going deep while he would nurse but now it's only nipple area first few seconds of nursing then I can relax a little. The other side is absolutely fine.
It can be on the tounge, roof of the mouth, inside of the cheeks and lips. You can Google thrush mouth and look at pictures to know what you're looking for.
@cajunpeach89 ok. White patches just on tongue or where at in mouth?
@lelepatts, It sounds more like nipple trauma which is so painful.
Check his mouth for thrush. If he doesn't have it you shouldn't either as far as I know.
@theinkedmommy no I don't think so. Nothing that pops out to me at least
@namastaye, @cajunpeach89, @mrsmccormick, @mommychina_, @cubanese,

This is NOT happening !!!!!!! I swear I had given up! But I'm 5 days late and I just got my BFP ???
So tired of hearing my hubbs talk about this so called "side man" I apparently have. It's news to be because I've never met this "side man" I'm accused of having. Is it just mine or do other spouses do this also 🤦♀️
It's sad that in this day and age an individual will attack your kids, whom are completely innocent in the matter, because they realize they haven't ruffled your feathers. Just goes to show the true side of said individual. Lowest of the low.
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
I gotta question could I be pregnant and have 2 1/2 day period because I think i got pregnant on Nov 26 and had implantation bleeding on Dec 11 because I'm usually on my period for at least 4 days but mostly 5 or 6 which my full period was Nov 11 for 5 days ?? but in dec only 2 1/2 days it's kinda confusing really im excited about my Dr visit feb19 to know for sure :)
