Breastfeeding
Just gave birth 3 days ago...nipple hurts while trying to breastfeed. Anyways to overcome it?

U can consult a lactation consultant. Happened to me to. After I gave birth, the Nurses did not taught me the right way to latch hence I was in terrible pain. Due to constant engorgement , I consulted sister Kang from mt Alvernia parentcraft , thank god I did, now my LO is day 18 old and still latching on , also I do not need the nipple cream anymore. I just need to feed him constantly every 2-3 hours and use haakaa (recommended by sister Kang too) to catch the let down. I have a spectra s1 but see no point in pumping as the haakaa works well ! My advise is Don’t delay in getting a lactation consultant advise cause it’s really painful and suffering !!
