Hi,
I have shooting, searing pain in my nipple from what I gather is a milk blister. I have got to the point where I want to stop BFing (baby six months old, got through loads of pain and problems in the early weeks but now I've had this agony for weeks and really feel I've had enough).
I just don't know how to stop, though. If I don't feed much, I'm in pain with a lumpy boob and the next time I feed, the pain from the milk blister is worse. But if I carry on feeding often, I'm in constant pain (as the worst of the post-feed pain lasts for a few hours so rolls onto the next feed) and the milk production will keep going.
Feeling caught in a vicious circle and really need advice on what to do, grateful for any suggestions!
