Mastitis

What to do:

  • Start all of the following as soon as you feel that mastitis is a possibility.

  • Nurse as often as possible

  • Drink lots of fluids

  • Stay in bed

  • Use hot, wet compresses on the breast that is affected

  • Take 1000 mg of Vitamin C every hour

  • Take Garlic as a natural antibiotic 3 times a day until all symptoms are gone for 24 hours. 

  • Take Thymex 3 times a day to boost your immune system

  • Take your probiotic.

  • If it's mastitis, your new little bundle won't get sick. If you still have symptoms, or your fever is above 100.4 degrees Fahrenheit 24 hours later, let your midwife know. You may need to go to see your doctor
