Question

Is there anything I can use to ease/numb the pain of my nipples when I pump/breastfeed? I had to stop pumping today before I started crying because it hurt so bad. I've been using the lanolina nipple cream, but it's not helping at all 😢

Yeah, I know what you're talking about. I tried a nipple shield with my first. Idk if you can use them with a pump though @mommybump3

is the size of the nipple shield thing the correct size?

stephanie · Answer

oh that I do not know. it's worth a shot at least. I'm still 24 weeks I'd try it.

Laura · Answer

My boobs are huge, but I still don't think I'm producing breast milk. I think it's still just colostrum. Would that work? @steph11

stephanie · Answer

try leaving some breast milk on you're nipple and let it air dry. they say breast milk works wonderw
