Nipple sore? Do these

Oreoluwa Folayan Mon 24-Jan-22 23:01:01

You are breastfeeding and it hurts or you can see visible injuries. Hurts too.. here are a few tips:

- Adjust your latching. A poor latch leads to sore nipple. A good latch is totally painless.

- Use nipple shields. It prevents your baby from sucking directly while giving your nipple time to heal.

- Use topical nipple healing creams.

- You could also pump too.


As long as you learn all the proper ways to position a baby in front of a nipple, you won’t have any problems with nipple soars.

What was your experience like?
