Poor mama! And bless you and thank you for feeding these babies!

You can apply a warm, damp compress to her nipples to offer relief and bring down any swelling. Have you gently attempted to express a nipple? Are they hard, red, hot?

If it's mastitis she'll need antibiotics.

How much are the babies drinking at each feeding? Does your syringe show mLs?
