I'm 11 weeks pregnant and (probably-mostly-dry-) nursing my 3 year old about two times a day.
Today I've had this pain bruised feeling on my left side (which I already sleep on almost exclusively) that extends from where my arm rests against my torso, forward the edge of my breast tissue.
I don't feel any lumpiness, and the pain is almost "itchy" in nature. My breasts are already kind of sore from pregnancy hormones + nursing, so I can't tell how much is that vs. this new thing.
Has anyone experienced mastitis so far back? My other cases were in the fleshy actual-boob part, not in the network of ducts in the rib area.
Am I just being paranoid? Should I be doing anything special to take care of my pregnant-and-nursing breasts?
