Mastitis is no fun (it sucks). I've experienced it twice myself and helped many clients through it. Myself and other IBCLCs tend to see more cases of mastitis, plugged ducts and engorgement around the holiday season and in today's episode I'm explaining why and what you can do to prevent it!
In today's episode I cover:

What are the signs of mastitis
How I ended up with it
What mastitis feels like
Why more people seem to be affected during the holidays
How to prevent it
