    @jodi102011 Thank you!

    Having sharp pain still but feeling better than when i came in here
  • My LC told me it wasn't necessary to pump and dump for a ct with contrast. Hope you feel better soon!!
  • @bexiewexie it does hurt a little but you will learn to get him to latch better. My daughter is a pro know that my milk came in. They have to work a lil harder with colsotrum. I got sore nipples the first few days but the lc at the hospital told me to hand express some out rub it on my .nipple and then use lanasol breast milk helps heal!! :-)
  • @captivated they had to push 75 of contrast 2xs and then they push 100 becsuse they had issues seeing because of the edema.
  • So I just got home! I am on oral antibotics for another 7 days and iron for the next 3 months.
    I am glad to be home and feeling better the c section is still sore but no horrible pain from the infection.
    @trixiesmom8 saw you tag me so I thoughti would tag you sincr you asked about me. Aubrey was born on the 5th got discharged Sunday back to the hospital on wen. And relessed today. At least lthey let her vist me when I was getting antibotics. infecctions suck I am super lucky we caught it so early
  • I have no idea how I missed this thread!! Glad you are finally home and caught the infection early. That sucks you were away from aubrey tho..that was nice that she got to visit.
  • @Aubreysmommy glad you are home, was the infection in your legs or your incision
  • @trixiesmom8 yea its great to be home!
    @jodi102011 it was/is a internal infection in my uterus from my c section :( I have to keep taking antibotics for the next week but I will be better and infection free!
