I’ve been feeding newborn for 2 weeks.
Nipples are shredded. One worse than the other.
It’s slightly oozy and sticks to the breast pad which is making things even more sore
Midwife suggested using nipple sheilds until baby is bigger and/or has check for tongue tie.
I’ve been using them now for the past few ages along with lansinoh but still they are cracked and sore.
What else can I do?
Baby hates the shields and I really don’t want it to be like this for the whole time I’m breast feeding.
Is there any hope that things will settle down ?
