rivkaMichael brought home my antibiotic prescription at 6pm last night, and I took one right away.
At 8pm, when I nursed Colin to sleep, I had to grit my teeth to keep from yelling in pain when he latched on.
At 10pm I took a long hot shower and hand-expressed some milk. It hurt, but not as much as I expected it to.
At 11pm Colin roused when Michael and I came to bed, and I nursed him. It was a little uncomfortable but not too bad.
Middle-of-the-night nursing didn't hurt at all. And today I still feel vaguely ill and achy, but my breast doesn't hurt and I'm not shaking with chills.
Dicloxacillin, you are my new best friend.
Update to add: Ow pumping still hurts ow.
