KC says:
Congrats on making it to 3 months! Thanks! Do you have a plan on how far you want to go with it now? No plan. I just want to go with the flow. -- Alpha alphawave at earthlink dot net |

Is there another ointment I should
try? Well, if you are sure there is no more thrush, maybe neosporin? It promotes healing--maybe it would help with the bleb. Leslie |

writes Leslie says: Wish I had more advice re the bleb--what all have you tried? The standard advice is to soak it, work on it with a sterilized needle, try to lift it off, and have baby latch or pump right afterward. I also tried spending lots of time airing out my breasts, I tried Lansinoh, I switched breast pads*, and I went without breast pads. The soak - needle - suck thing works, but it always comes back. Like, 2 feedings later, it's back. Or even the next feeding. I haven't figured out how to make it go away for good. (* odd thing -- the two times I used Johnson's breast pads, I suffered a plugged duct in the breast with the bleb. Those two times are the only times my bleb has led to a plugged duct. Needless to say, I went back to the Lansinoh pads. :-) -- Alpha alphawave at earthlink dot net My baby is just a little younger than yours. I've also had a bleb that wouldn't budge even though I tried all the usual stuff. For the last week and a half I haven't worn a bra and it now seems to be going. -- Regina |

For the last week and a half I haven't worn a bra and it now seems to be going. Ooohh. Well, I'll keep that suggestion tucked in the back of my mind. My breasts are D cup and it's pretty uncomfortable to go without a bra, especially when it's been awhile since DS has eaten. But I'll consider it if I get to the end of my rope with this bleb. :-) -- Alpha alphawave at earthlink dot net |

Well, recognizing that we're all different... great for Monika that it isn't uncomfortable for her to go braless, but for me, it is. The skin on my chest feels pulled and stretched, it makes the skin underneath sweat, I detest the feeling of my nipples rubbing on loose fabric, and I find myself hunching over more when I go braless, which ends up hurting my back. -- Alpha alphawave at earthlink dot net |

Yes, and if you are more comfortable wearing a bra, then so be it. The things you mention are reasonable reasons, but have to do with many other factors than size. That was my point. Larry |
