I don't know why but I have really sore nipples......like they are on fire! Any advice as to how to make this stop? I want to cry :-(

You can get re-usable cooling breast pads to put inside your bra, which might help. I've seen these ones in Babies R Us and online.

I am 35 weeks pregnant and have sore nipples. But then I'm feeding a three year old who senses imminent change and has seriously upped her demands.

Having said that, feeding earlier in pregnancy was extremely painful.

You have my sympathies.

Thanks AKMD, I shall go have a look tomorrow. The pain is only really extreme when I am tired and have done too much.....perhaps I should simply rest more!

Otchayaniye, gosh you are tougher than me. Do you plan to tandem feed? I stopped with DC1 just before I fell pregnant with DC2 (she is now almost 7 so not exactly an issue now) x
