A mom in my practice had to wean her daughter at age 14 months because she
had had nine breast infections and had tried "everything."  Her son is two
months old she has had 3 infections at three different locations so far.  She
is trying cabbage leaves, echinacea and elderberry and I have suggested all
the usual remedies including frequent nursing and "emptying" and looser bras.
Any added words of wisdom for her?
