baby blues for new mommies

Has anyone experienced this? Lately i have just been bursting into tears all the time, not over baby, but just being overly tired, no appetite.  Im getting into fights with my babys father for really no reason at all. I also have mastitis, which i got on antibiotics 2 days ago and it has gotten worse. I cant even nurse or pump out of my right breast . Ive called the doctor n im waiting for them to call me back n im getting so frustrated its been an hour already! All because they know im not pregnant they dont think it could be that important ? Not sure...but the pain in unbearable :(and now my baby is sleeping and i knoe shes going to be waking up soon n i havent got sleep yet im going to be up all night :(

Mastitis clogs your milk ducts. The only way to get rid of it is nurse the milk out, but no milk is coming out of mine. Most have it 24-48 hours ive had mine 5 days and anti biotics dont work. Theyre looking at having to drain my breast to get it out. It is extremely painful. U can look up the definition for a more clear answer lol. It happens to alot of women who breastfeed just a few days after birth. And it comes along with flu like symptoms, like chills and fever and being nauseous.  Not a fun week so far lol.
