inexpensive also...

@aneveu83, I miss it! Everyone is so sweet there . Small town so everyone feels like family lol!

Well he can't remember. He said they were apartments near the marine base

I moved away for many years and than decided to move back

yes very small town...

Yeah! Because that's a small city! Let me ask him which apartments they were. I was literally visiting him every weekend but I forgot because I was so young . I was in north Hollywood with my mom at the time

small world @mmmirage hmmm

A lot of pain comes from the baby not latching right if you are in pain when they latch then start over and have them relatch :) nipple cream will definitely help to keep them from getting dry and cracked.

do it don't give up. keep pushing through the pain. I have 2 week old twins I'm breast feeding I wanted to give up in the hospital cause it was hard feeding two babies every 2 hours.no sleep really.I didn't give up. .but when I got home I started to pump its way easier for me cause now my boy friend can help with feeding.

I've fed 3 babies not once have I felt any pain or discomfort... it depended how babu latches all mine latched great

Lansinoh nipple cream. Btw- my dad used to love in 29 palms!!! He owned a convinient store there . I think little ceasars pizza was in that plaza too

what's the best cream for sore nipples

nipple shield

Nursing pads are a must! Once milk comes you may leak and not even feel it. The nursing pads I buy also sell a nipple cream that helps with the pain. Pain is usually caused by a bad latch so while your in the hospital talk to a lactation consultant!
