@mrsnewman10511, :( I'm so sorry it took three months for us to get a good not painful latch.. I used to go to an LC once a week to get help..but eventually it stops hurting just push through mine used to bleed so bad :(
Make sure your nips are clean and dry as much as you can so bacteria doesn't spread.. Bacteria loves warm moist spots and a lactating mom is perfect for that..I personally was able to go without a shirt or bra at home so my breast were able to airdry.
Nipple shields helped me a lot with the pain. It still hurt but I didn't get cracks or bleed at all. After a week or so I weaned him off of the shield.
