Latching

Been latching my 5 days old newborn for feeding but stopped for one day due to swollen and cracked painful nipples. Any remedies? I wish to continue latching him though.. does nipple guard helps?

Squeeze some of your breast milk to apply over it. It’s the best remedy for me. I was too “generous” with the nipple cream that it caused a counter effect.
