My right nipple is cracked open and is sore a lot. It opens up every time she eats and I try to get her to be careful so it stops hurting. Any tips on fixing this?

Jennifer Downin · Answer

when my nipples got too sore i would put lanolin on and then use a nipple sheild for a feeding or two just to give my nipple some time to heal. also the soothing gel pads are THE MOST soothing thing i ever experienced

@augustbaby2016400, she's 3 months. @santistevanmommie THANK YOU!  Coconut oil for everything!

Shawna Santistevan · Answer

You can put coconut oil on it and try to nurse her on the other side as much as possible to give it a chance to heal. When that one feels full then offer it to her
