Hi All:
I exclusively brestfeeding my 7 weeks old DD since born. Past 2 week I found that there are white spots on my nipple. A nurse told me that they are casued by plugged milk duct. Does anyone have a good way of clearing them? Will that cause infection if I leave them there? TIA |

I had them twice, and cleared them according to the suggestions on the "Kellymom" page that Iphigenia posted for you. I nicked the blebs with a sterile hypodermic needle and put DS on to nurse, with his chin pointing at the lumps. Within hours my troubles were gone. -- Beth John & Theodor's mother b.&d. 12/25/99 & b. 12/3/02 |
