Sympathetic mother @SapirAviva reacted to her post:

“Thanks for sharing! Having breastfed 6 kids and suffered about or two of (thankfully mild) mastitis, I appreciate the real-life and not always Hallmark moment breastfeeding stories.”

Preti said her husband was hesitant to do it at first but soon came around to the idea.

She told the Insider in an interview:

“We did it for about 10 minutes — until I was uncomfortable since his sucking was stronger than my pump or our babies' mouths. My breast was less full, but his sucking didn't remove the clog.”

She said the use of a manual breast pump and an Epsom salt bath did the trick and not the efforts of her husband.
