Anyone else have sore nipples when you first start breastfeeding? Lasting about 20-30 seconds & then it subsides. Anything I can do to stop that from happening? I lather my nipples in coconut oil after each feeding.
I agree...latch IS EVERYTHING. LATCH IS LIFEEEE lol! @riahlala3 @sparklymama sometimes I can't get my son to open his mouth wide enough😞
make sure they don't nibble their way on when feeding starts . make sure mouth is all the way open before putting nipple in. good latch equals less pain
Agree with other comments... big, open latch! In the beginning, my baby's mouth was much smaller and she would clamp down so it hurt when she first latched on anyway, but it gets better with time. And nipple cream helps heal if you're dealing with pain from cracked or sore nipples. Good luck!
