Breastfeeding is so painful right now. My boobs are beyond sore.

There's no bleeding or dryness or cracked skin, im just sore.

What are some good tips on how to soothe myself to not be in pain?

my first baby had that problem. pumping may help since it kinda stretches the nipple a little so he may be able to fit more in his mouth.

@jadien2010, he just has a really tiny mouth so he can't fit a lot in his mouth :(

it could be from a bad latch. If you can sometimes pumping for a moment first will make it easier for baby to latch on better. hope you get some relief.

lanolin cream helps even when there's nothing there. I couldn't nurse my son off my left side one night and I put it on before bed the next morning it was fine
