Any moms who breast feed have tips on how to help with the really sore nipples? Ways to soothe them. Baby girl sucked way too much yesterday that they hurt at the touch
Rub your breastmilk on your nipples and let them air dry after each feeding.
I know in the hospital some people use nipple shields to get babies to latch properly and slowly wean them off of the shields
Your nipples will hurt and be super sore but it doesn't be painful. If it's painful check her latch.
Nipple cream ALL THE TIME! Even during feedings.
@jolynnwilliams the more you work on a good latch, the less painful it will be. Being sore in the first couple of days normal. It won't last forever. I use coconut oil.
@beebaby, I just give up. It's too painful or is it normal?
@raisingabi, I got both those. But they're not really helping. 😔
I know they make an ointment over in baby sections by the breast pads. Also these little gel packs that go over your boobs.
I've been using the gel pads feels great after they come out the fridge. Lol. But she's getting better at latching which is good
