I've almost gave up on breast feeding. I gotta find something for this soreness.

have you tried warm compresses and nipple cream

I'm try this nipple cream but I have tried the warm compress

@francesgln92,

I know it's hard. it got so bad for me instead of warm compresses I would use ice packs to numb it lol @aheggs3

I'll try both @francesgln92

do you pump? @aheggs3

do you pump? @aheggs3

@aheggs3, the medela nipple "cream" is the best... it works way better than any other

I tried but it cracked my nipples @francesgln92

@b3autifulm3ss, Imma try and find some. I won't when will I be able to go to the store since I've had a c-section

The soreness should ease up soon. If your nips are still sore this next week or so, check babys latch.

They're sore from being cracked when I attempted to pump. @meagansimone

Your flanges may be the wrong size.

...

are you nursing as well?

Try using nipple shields, they saved mine!

What's a nipple shield? @bianca_rose

@meagansimone, they changed the flange twice and couldn't figure out why it was doing it. But my son latches and eats very well

There's no need to pump if he is latching right now, Then you only need to start pumping once a day two weeks before you go to work to have enough for the first dy. on the first day, you pymp for the second and so on

This rubbery/plastic thing you put on that protects the nipple, it has holes in it so they get the milk through that. I was putting lanolin on and using the shield and my nipples were able to heal

Here's a oic

Pic

Okay. Imma try to find one. Those @bianca_rose

You can get them at target/Walmart

It's really weird that that pic is what posted, I took a pic of the actual shield on my leg, I don't even have the pic that posted
