Have been finding b/feeding on one side very painful for a few days - on NYE I looked, and there was a BIG hole - weepy, not bleeding, but definitely oozing (sorry if tmi). NYE was agony, as I'd been not feeding so much on that side, as it HURTS, and got a bit engorged, so have fed through that, taken nurofen, bathed it in hot water, changed angle of feeding.
How can I help it heal? I'm going to get some Lansinoh today, and have rubbed milk into it. It's SO sore!
Any positive stories of this sort of thing that resolved? Morningpaper, you had a similar thing didn't you? How did that turn out? Ds2 is 8 months, not ready to stop feeding yet, and in any case, couldn't stop straight off because of engorgement.
