DS2 is 5 days old. I have painful bleeding nipples. I know its the latch. Sometimes it works fine but othertimes I just cant get him to take enough nipple in.
Ive tried touching the nipple to his nose, holding the breast like a hamburger but with not a huge amount of success.
I never bled with DS1 so this is all a bit new and painful for me! (And surprising as I thought that feeding for 2 years would have toughened my nipples up!)
