Any moms able to pump with cracked nipples? Ouch! I don't even know how that side got cracked cause I've only been nursing from one side lately and now my LO dr is telling me if I'm not nursing that side to at least pump it to keep my supply up but I can't right now. It won't dry up completely will it?

@ciraclesmiracle, @shananaginsx, @ssdj4, thx ladies I've been using cream and it's helping a little but it still hurts to pump not the actual nipple but the ring around it that pulls when you pump 😩
As others said, nipple balm and keep pumping or you will dry up! Also, put breast milk on your nipples and allow them to "air out" for a while after each pumping. Sorry, I'm sure you're suffering. It's not fun.
make sure you use nipple cream hun. I will completely dry up if you don't pump. Mine dried up quickly with my first.
Could you have the wrong size of flange(the tube thing)? My friend has really small nipples and the size that came with the pump was too big and was hurting her. When she sized down to a smaller flange it was much better. The flange that comes with the pump is just an average size--you can get ones that are bigger or smaller to suit you.
