Stopped breastfeeding ds1 last week (3 last week). He was having 1 feed in the evening. Still feeding ds2 (13 months). Last evening I noticed a lumpy bit on my right boob on the outside, underneath (if that makes sense). Overnight it got progressively worse and this morning my boob is very hard and tender. I'm worried that this is going to turn into mastitis. I've been putting ds2 on the boob but it doesn't seem to be improving matters. In addition, I've taken some ibuprofen to help with the pain. If one of the boys happens to knock my boob it is really tender. Had the occasional blocked duct which I've managed to rectify but this is so much worse. This is so frustrating as I've been feeding for 3 years, so you'd think I'd know what I was doing!
Anyone got any advice - please? TIA.
