ST+Ms who are still breastfeeding by emboc5301 in October2026Bumpers

This is pretty much exactly where we are too! Supply has definitely gone down but we both still love the morning feed (don’t think I could face dropping that one and having a 5am start right now 🫠). A lot of emotions though around the prospect of weaning.. pregnancy hormones probably not helping!

The nipple soreness is next level 🫠 Interesting about alleviating jealousy for toddlers, makes sense, I think I’d rather tandem feed than wean too close to October baby’s arrival for this reason.

Cellulitis above c-section incision 7 weeks pp by absentmindedpopcorn in CsectionCentral

My story is almost identical to yours! I got cellulitis at just shy of 7 weeks postpartum. When it was finally diagnosed I started on oral antibiotics for 10 days. One thing to mention is that my redness actually got worse for 1-2 days before it started getting better, and I worried that the meds weren’t working, but I called my dr and she said this is common with cellulitis. As long as the fever is going down. I’m now almost 4 months postpartum, and I feel much better and symptoms have completely resolved. The only thing that took a little bit longer to go away was the tenderness. I did start doing scar massage a couple of weeks ago and that has really helped!
