    Pretty Mama

    Oh that is so precious! What a good Mommy she is with those cute babies. You are a wonderful caregiver/Mommy, too.

    This may be silly but - I know human women tend to use cabbage leaves to lessen the swelling and pain associated with mastitis. Quote from newscientist.com

    Cold cabbage leaves will have the simple effect of a cold compress, and reduce heat in the same way as a cold flannel might (but without the drips). However, the beneficial effects of the cabbage are increased if you heat the leaves, by running a hot iron over them or by blanching in boiling water, before applying. The heat releases various anti-inflammatory chemicals as well as phytohormones. Leaving the leaves in the bra will have a slow-release effect as the body warms them and draws out beneficial chemicals.
    You could maybe ask the vet if you could put some cabbage leaves on the floor for Pretty Mama to lay on. Its a potential idea. Hope things improve!
    Sincerely,
    Kat
