HOW TO TREAT EARLY INFLAMMATION?
(Lumps, Blocked Ducts, Mastitis)
The principles of management are to resolve the
INFLAMMATION in the breast tissue.
- Feed or pump only enough only to feed baby, not empty (YOU CANNOT EMPTY A BREAST)
Cold/ice packs to reduce swelling/pain.
Ibuprofen to reduce inflammation
- Lymphatic drainage (light strokes toward your armpit)

WHAT TO AVOID IN MASTITIS MANAGEMENT?
The previous methods of management WORSEN mastitis and INCREASE the risk of developing an abscess.
AVOID these actions:
* Deep massage INJURES tissue & INCREASES swelling.
* Pumping to empty tells your body to make MORE milk, increasing pressure.
* Heat WORSENS swelling and INCREASES inflammation.
These cause early inflammation to develop into severe mastitis.

Please call for help if not resolving and if you continue to have a fever and have flu like symptoms.

Great study about how mothers are concerned about low milk production actually have it?
What strategies do they rate as most helpful?

This 2025 case-control study measured 24-hour milk production to distinguish perceived insufficient milk from actual insufficient milk.

All newborns lose some weight in the first 24 hours. If you received IV fluids during labor, your baby may lose even more, not because of feeding, but because the fluids make the birth weight look higher than it really is.

That’s why the 24-hour weight is the most accurate starting point for tracking growth.

Researchers in Canada found that using the 24-hour weight instead of the birth weight helped more babies stay exclusively breastfed in their first few days.

Let’s talk about a a
First make ensure your newborn is comfortable, not overstimulated, too cold or too hot!

Are you using cloth diapers! then it could be an uncomfortable cold and wet diaper on their skin.

While the cause of colic isn’t well understood, colic is a symptom of something happening in the baby. Usually, if the root can be found and addressed, the “colic” will reduce or go away completely.
Some Factors that contribute to colic:
* Digestive system that isn’t fully developed
* Tension and/or asymmetry in the body from intrauterine positioning or birth trauma
* Undiagnosed tongue tie causing tension throughout the body.
*Excessive air being swallowed during feeding.
*disruptions in the gut
* an Imbalance of healthy bacteria in the digestive tract
* Food allergies or sensitivities
* Overfeeding or underfeeding
* Need for more burping or positional changes/tummy time.

KEEP IN MIND:
Babies should not cry inconsolably for hours a day.

Babies are fussy, gassy creatures, especially for the first three months.

It can be difficult to distinguish typical crying from excessive crying.

In general,
“colic is defined as predictable periods of significant distress in an otherwise well-fed, healthy baby where the baby cries for 3+ hours a day, 3+ days a week, for 3+ weeks.”

Features of
may include the following:
⚪️Intense screaming or crying that seems like an expression of pain

Tension in the body; stiffened legs and/or arms, clenched fists, arched back, or tense abdomen
⚪️Predictable timing of fussiness, often in the evening
⚪️Crying for no apparent reason (hunger and dirty diapers have been ruled out)
⚪️Facial color changes, skin flushing or blushing
