So I'm breastfeeding my 2 month old for the first time BC when he was an infant he would only take the bottle and wouldn't latch. Now he can latch on great but it HURTS. I think he has a good latch I can only see a tiny bit of my areola. And i hold him in the cradle position. Any advice? I really want to exclusively BF. but the pain is to much.
**Just started yesterday morning throughout the entire day.

It took my son 5 weeks to latch on but he had his lip and tongue tied so it was extra painful. I'll get better just give it some time take a trip to Walmart and get some nipple butter it literally saved my life and nipples lol

your welcome. Lansinoh nipple cream is a life saver. with my first after every feeding i applied it. my 2nd only when it hurt or was dry. maybe try aftrr every feeding and see if it helps. its also perfectly safe for baby so no need to wash off before feeding
