The ENgorgement STRIKE BACK (~~~tHe jOURney of ThE BREASTS~~~ (Part V)

nearly…
nearly I’m going to get the scary mastitis again!!!
this morning, after feeding, found it (the same problematic one) still engorged…
to the extent, you know what?? I can see the little bumps… yikes!
immediately, cold sweat!!! the last time, I didn’t know, so, I got it, nevermind…
now, I know how the thing is exactly like, I don’t want to get it again…
I was worried… I do not want to be rushed to the hospital, probably got jabbed, and be fed with anti-biotic…
yikes!

so, I tried to express… arrgh… dripping… I’m not patient enough to keep expressing…
so, I took out the cabbage leave… people said it works.. but somehow, I don’t see tremendous result…
and I’ve got blister out-front already (cry!) (painful, you know!!)
then, baby got up..
I quickly latch her on, endure the pain… beg her to continue suckling…
that’s this afternoon…
she refused to in the beginning, and sorry baby, mama has to force you (sigh..)

luckily.. with her help, it subside a little bit…

AND.. as I’m writing now (after midnight)
it’s gone… manage to ‘recover’ during the previous feeding, before she went to sleep…

I guess… the bonding when people talk about breastfeeding, is not just the baby being ‘bonded’ to you,
without realizing it… the mother’s already been bonded to the baby too…

I guess…
