I know the saying is "third time's a charm," but let's hope the fourth time is for me! Yes I finally went to the doctor yesterday for this red, tender lump I've had in my breast for about 10 days now. I was hoping it would go away on its own hehe. I actually went to see a lactation specialist and she encouraged me to go to urgent care. Even though I haven't had a fever with this bout, she said its still a form or mastitis or cellulitis. I guess some bacteria got in under my skin and caused this infection.
So alas, I am on another course of antibiotics. I am not thrilled, but, zoom out....birds eye perspective...if having to take meds for 10 days to cure a small infection is the least of my health concerns...I am lucky! Really no big deal. I am so grateful for my overall health and the health of my family! Also grateful I didn't get a fever this time too. :-)
That being said...still lets hope that this fourth times a charm! All the docs at Kaiser have been SO nice. I showed her a pic of Levi and she commented on his chubby cheeks and how he must be a good eater..hehe!
Ok well Happy Friday!
