Teeth - owwwww!!!

DS has two bottom teeth and my poor nipples are bleeding and blistered and so painful.

I assume he has to learn to re-latch properly, is there anything I can do to help him/me?

I thought the days of painful bf were behind me.

Sympathy here. DD has no problem with the bottom two as she is good with having her tongue out over her lower lips. But the top two are a different story! I just unlatch her and do nose to nipple kind of thing again. I'm back at work now or I will go back to the bf group to get my latch checked again.

I had forgotten about the nose to nipple, I will try that, thank you.

I had the same when my DS's bottom teeth and (tbh worse) when his top teeth came through and it was really sore for a few days and then it just eased up again. I didn't really do/change anything. Either he sorted out his latch or my nipples became even more insensitive i don't know Wink -hang in there!!
