It looks better to me today. The lumps aren't really noticeable, which is leading me to believe it was probably just the milk that was concentrated in areas, like you said. And the lumps have always been below the teats and not directly around them. Today the whole area is just firm, not hard, so I do think it's just the milk. And the little babies seem to be thriving.
So I do think I was just being paranoid, but better to be safe than sorry. I am still keeping a very close eye on things, just in case. The first sign that something is wrong, we're headed the the vet ASAP.
