Hi
I have a friend who birthed last week at the Mater
and is having probs with flat/inverted nipples. Very damaged and is AF as of
yesterday. She is quite motivated to breastfeed.
Any one have any suggestions as to who she can see
up there? (had already been back in to the hosp and was told under no
circumstances to give the baby EBM with blood in it!!). Im still 3 weeks away
from moving up there so cant help for now, except on phone! Sounds like maybe a
bacterial infection beginning on nipples but no sign of mastitis yet. But
nipples are too painful to even express right now, I have discussed pain relief
and importance of expressing
Just spoke with her and she is going to call the LC
at the Mater (Toni?) but I would love to be able to offer her some options in
case she cant get help there.
Cheers,
Di
