I feel defeated.. I tried breast feeding and pumping just for my nipples to start bleeding.. 😔 I…

Don't give up momma. My right one bled for awhile but I fed solely on the other one while I put cream on the right one. Cooling nipple pads help too. It's pretty common. It'll get easier. No need to pump for awhile yet. Are you trying to stock up?

Don't feel discouraged. It happened to me. I saw the lactation consultant and she helped me out. Do you have one? The hospital where you had your baby should offer that to you. You can also ask if they have a support group there that can help you. Just know you are not alone. It took me time to get it right with this baby. Some babies just need a little more help.

@cubanese, The first week he wouldn't latch so the lactation consultant at the hospital told me to pump. Now he is latching but I also pump so I can store it but they are so sore and bleeding.

@morganmommy79, yes I'm trying to stock up because I go back to work soon

@marthaelisa17, he a premier so he didn't have the concept of sucking right away

@cubanese, yes they are the right size. Okay I will stop pumping but when is it okay for me to put him back on the breast?
