Good news: Stitches and such are healing up very well, so they have cleared me for physical activity! Time to bust out the running shoes! Ok, maybe not quite back to that level yet... but YAY!
Bad news: I have mastitis again/still. She took one look at Righty and was like "Yep, that's mastitis alright!" I'd felt feverish again last night so I knew something was up. She suspects it never 100% went away, so she prescribed me some antibiotics. She said that sometimes exhaustion can make it flare up... I said that was a cruel joke given that we have a newborn at home - when are you not exhausted?? She told me to take Dargan and curl up in bed for a few days, feed him on the infected side as much as possible (draining it helps the infection go away and isn't harmful to baby), and drink lots of water. Given that it's 95+ degrees all this week, I don't think that will be too difficult to obey!
And instead of complaining about how terrible Dargan's sleeping & eating schedule has been so far this week, I'll just post some gratuitous cuteness and call it good:
