I got my boy to latch w sugar water ..and if u pump a little your baby will have a better time latching too

it helps release the pain . pump ..

No it usually doesn't hurt. try putting some nipple cream on the inside of the flange where it goes on your nipple, if you have clogged ducts you need to get them unclogged before it develops into mastitis.

@crunchymomma, will It hurt my nipple? I feel like my whole right side is clogged up. I don't want to make it worse.

pump just enough to relieve them and then stop. don't pump until they're empty.
