Shouldn’t be hurting after a while. First few days or weeks might hurt a little especially if you’re a first time mom. Mine hurt like hell for first 2 weeks. Cringing in pain every time the first pump started. After while it gets better.

Initially painful for me as well. But I’ve now been pumping for 1 year and it’s painless.

It should be painless. Check with your lactation consultant more on this

Not supposed to be painful. Get a lactation consultant if you need help.

Mine hurts a little.. I have been pumping for 6 weeks already

contact a lactation consultant. shouldn't be hurting.

Try a gentler but more fast rhythm suction.
