24 hours

I got mastitis again. It's so incredibly painful, every muscle and every bone in my body hurts. It's been 37 degrees, and I have been shivering and looking for a quilt and hot showers. The Le Leche League book suggests lying in bed and breast feeding all day long, so that's what I did, trying to feed as much as possible off the breast with the problem. I've been incoherent and the headache has been awful. And then, about an hour ago, the fever started to leave. I am coherent again. I can think. And the pain is leaving.

They still haven't told Mum what day she might be able to leave the hospital. More tests tomorrow.
