DD (15 months) is teething and has grazed my left nipple - she always struggles for a few days when new teeth come in. And then, last night, she decided to chew on it too. The skin isn't broken but it's very sore.
At this stage in feeding, can I just avoid feeding from that side for 24/48 hours until it is less painful? (She feeds morning, nap time & bedtime plus numerous short comfort feeds at night).
We are in the slow (and seemingly futile) process of attempting to stop feeding but I'm not sure stopping cold turkey would be the best for anyone even if it did let my poor chewed nipple heal!
