Avatar f tn For all the breastfeeding mommies what did you do for cracked sore nipples?
540911 tn?1263191014 Have any of you become pregnant while breastfeeding, and if so, did you still get sore BBs?
Avatar f tn 16W4d. My nipples have been itchy the whole day. Now they are sore.
Avatar f tn Even with a great latch your nipples typically still get pretty dang sore in the very beginning. Thankfully your body gets used to it, as long as it's a good latch of course. I've nursed three so far, and will definitely be breastfeeding my last as well. Good luck and congrats!
Avatar f tn I understand that your nipples are supposed to be sore but I'm 19 weeks now and they still are! How long does it last?
Avatar f tn I used to pump for 20 to 30 mins per session. And due to that, I think my nipples got cracked and was very sore and swollen. I stopped pumping for 2 months. Today, I started again, and I noticed blood in milk only on one breast (breast which had cracked) I'm worried. The milk is coming out clear when I squeeze my breast But I don't see any crack on my nipples. So idk where the blood is coming from. Is it something to worry?
Avatar f tn Im 21 weeks and im a FTM my nipples are dry and itchy( and sore) and im not sure if this is normal I asked my midwife and she sort of ignored the question and said having sore boobs is normal...
Avatar f tn I was having trouble breast feeding these last two days but I got it now. Nipples are still sore and feel dry. What can I do to make them feel the way they did before..??

10023837 tn?1409202605 I am only breastfeeding. The first 2 days were horrible. My nipples were very sore and it also started to have some cuts on them from my baby suckinh so much . but on day 3 my milk came in and it was a lot easier and not painful ! But sore. Nipple cream is a must! You might want to give up during the first fee days because its very overwhelming but hang in there mama!!
Avatar f tn @ashlii00 Don't be scared! Honestly after being in labor (even if you get an early epidural) breastfeeding pain is a piece of cake. Inconvenient, yes, but you birthed a baby! You're a super hero mama. Sore nipples pass, and breastfeeding is good for both of you.
9536744 tn?1414122031 s some breastfeeding moms on here. Ive been exclusively breastfeeding my baby girl since she was born for 3 weeks now and my nipples are still very sore is this normal? will it go away soon?
Avatar n tn Bought seamless comfort bras just to sleep in--cheap at Marshalls & Walmart. They slip over the head. Extra support has helped. I wear maternity/nursing bra during the day. While BF I used lanolin last time and slept in a maternity/nursing bra at night but I've also heard people like those nursing tanks. Not enough support for me but might work for you.
Avatar f tn Does anyone else have sore nipples after breastfeeding...any suggestions please...
Avatar f tn You can also let the girls out to breathe and put lanolin or rub breast milk on the nipples to help. Can you pump from the right and whats he reason you can give from that one? You can also hand express for a little relief if you dont have a pump. We also have a very helpful breastfeeding forum that can help.
Avatar f tn So my mother-in-law tells me that I need to toughen up my nipples before the baby gets here by rubbing them raw with a wash cloth like twice a week. I'm guessing to help keep them from cracking etc. When I start to breastfeed. Is this an old wives tale?? I'm not sure what to think of it.
7928796 tn?1396351929 I totally agree this is my 1st pregnancy with implants and my nipples are extremely sore. I didn't have implants in my other pregnancies. I Read that if your experiencing sore nipples with implants that's a good sign that your nerves are working just fine.
Avatar f tn Ok, so I had my baby march 4th. Immediately began breastfeeding. Everything was good. Her latch was off some but it adjusted as she ate. Yesterday my nipples were so sore I couldn't nurse at all & had to supplement formula. Woke up this morning to my boobs feeling like rocks. Took a warm shower & let water run over them. Tried to nurse, nipples still too sore. As the day went on my boobs started getting even more hard. Idk what to do.
2085031 tn?1347154434 I am! It's been almost two weeks... Sore nipples, tired from gettin up every hour of the night.. But atleast he has taken to the milk and is puttin on weight. I never imagined it would be so demanding.. Or hurt so dang bad!
Avatar f tn The nurse said it takes 3-5days but is there anything i can do for my actual milk to come in. Tmi my nipples are Getting really sore and i already feel bad that my milk hasnt came in yet. Makes me feel discouraged.
Avatar f tn Every time I feed my baby it hurts so bad I feel like im in labor, I had her on sunday.. its all sore n crack n hurts like hell I dont know what else to use I already got the hydrogel they dont seem to help much.. I stop breastfeeding her but I do pump on low level. I would love to just feed her instead of pump as pumping will end up drying my milk :( Thanks for ur help!!
