So embarrassed
Argh I'm so embarrassed. Yesterday one of my boobs was pretty swollen (I bf my 5.5month old) and id wondered if I'd skipped a feed off that side, anyway it didn't go down and got a little sore in the evening. Today it was really swollen, red and had some very hard lumps in it. I called the Drs for an app only to be told I couldn't have one until next Tuesday (Thursday today). I asked for a dr to call me as I was worried it was mastitis and would only get worse over the weekend. The Dr i spoke to said I needed to come in today and I could have an app with Dr Willis. Great I thought I've seen her before she's really nice, only when I got there and my name came up on the screen it was actually a new Dr, Dr Wallace. Who happened to be young, male and gorgeous. The examination was so awkward (for me I'm sure he didn't care), I'm just not keen on men touching my boobs. He said he wasn't sure if it was mastitis or not and he wanted to see me again in the morning to see if its worse and to keeping feeding my daughter off that side. Well now I feel really stupid as after a few more feeds and two pumping sessions on that side it's all gone and must have just been a blocked duct. Sorry for the rant I just feel like such a wally
