[QUOTE="Ktllc, post: 492306, member: 11847"] If it is mastitis, the best thing you can do for yourself is keep nursing as much/often as you can. It is not dangerous for the babies and it you will find relief soon. As time goes by, your nipples should get tougher and it won't hurt anymore. Usually, it takes about 1 month to really get the hang of it and get past the adjustment period. But sometimes, it is too much and that is ok to switch to formula! I breastfed my first too, but could not breasfeed Sweet Pea... I tried A LOT of different things to make it work, but it was just too much and no one was happy (I was in pain and so was she). I do not regret switching to formula. No matter what, make the decision for yourself and your babies. Don't let ANYONE guilt you into anything. What is right for one mother is not necessarly right for another. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
