Slowly,slowly, I am returning....

From the land of evil mastitis. We thought it was a really bad case of the flu....I would shiver until my teeth would chatter and then throw off the wool blanket and beanie as i would burn up. Fever, nausea, body aches, the works. Then I went to take a shower and noticed that my breast was really red....Joel put it all together and we called the after hours midwife. She agreed that it sounded like a classic breast infection and called in a perscription for me.

The Lord was so faithful in having the Hunts here while I ws down for the count. They took total care of the babes while Joel was at work! All I did was pump and breastfeed, which was difficult as my milk production went way down ( right after pouring out all of that expired milk!) . I think it is slowly coming back but I may still have a plugged milk duct so I am soaking in the tub, using a hot compress, etc.

Jim and Shari left this morning so Joel took off of work to give me another day to recover, Anyway, just wanted to let you know what has been going on. Hopefully our little household will be functioning normally soon and I'll post some cute pictures of the babes! Jen
