Little did Zoe know, a comment on her original post would get her the help she really needed…

A follower of hers commented that Zoe may be experiencing symptoms related to mastitis.

Mastitis is an infection of the breast tissue that can develop in breastfeeding mothers, typically within the first six to twelve weeks after giving birth.

A follower of Zoe’s expressed that they had also suffered from mastitis after having a baby.

Heathersnapper wrote to Zoe, saying that “I got it about 7 times while BF, so I used to ask the dr for the prescription and have the antibiotics on hand ready to take and the first sign of infection, to lessen the severity.”

Zoe would need to see a doctor to check for sure whether she had mastitis.

Luckily, if caught early, mothers can avoid developing abscesses or further complications of the infection.

It wasn’t too long after reading the comments from her followers that she updated them with news after a visit to the doctors.

In an thankful post, Zoe had a message and an update:

“THANK YOU to all you wonderful and switched on followers who informed me about Mastitis in my last post (which I thought was just the flu) I have been on antibiotics, pain relief, and my angel of a mother in law has been helping me care for Harper. I am starting to feel human again after feeling like I was hit by a truck! #thankyouinstafam ❤#bathtimebaby,” wrote Zoe.

Incredible, right?

Social media is powerful for so many reasons!
