does anyone have problems with getting plugged ducts constantly? I nursed my second oldest for 6 months and finally quit because i was getting so many of them and they were painful horribly. i think i finally figured out the cause so hopefully this will help anyone in my shoes. i cut out caffeine completely and stopped eating even small amounts of junk food and haven't had a plugged duct with my new baby in a month. has anyone else had this happen?

Hi lee,
I haven't started nursing yet, but I have started to have plugged ducts, ouch! I think it was great of you to get off the caffeine. Before pregnancy it gave me b___st cysts, and now clogged ducts. My doctor has recommended warm compresses to help them drain. Also be sure you are drinking all your water. It's good to sit down with at least 8oz while you pump or feed.
good luck
