Any ideas on what may be causing an extremely painful letdown in a mom whose
baby is 3 months old? It has occured since her milk first came in. She has
tried warm compresses, nursing freq, and Diflucan. There is no hx of breast
trauma that she remembers. She had some clogged ducts and painful letdown
with her first baby 4 years ago, nursed the 2nd child 2 years ago with no
pain or problems, and now with this one the first 20 seconds of nursing is
excruciating. She is about to call it quits. Even if we can't sort out the
prob, she would like to get in contact with anyone who has experienced this.
Thanks. Claudia G Rn/IBCLC
