My ds bit my nipple earlier with his only, but really sharp, tooth and drew blood.

It has now gone all red and swollen and is throbbing!

Is there anything I can put on it apart from good old Lansinoh to stop it hurting so much and stop it getting infected?

Mine did this again tonight after doing it a few weeks ago, I got some stuff from Boots, which obviously you can't get til tomorrow, but I've found it great.
is called antiseptic nipple sparay and was under £3

spray, not sparay, doh!

just Lansinoh as far as i know, also if it's too painful then pump and bottle feed if you can. ds did this to me a few months ago and it was soooo painful!

Oh, good thinking. When I was 16 and had my belly button pierced I used that to keep it clean! I shall purchase some tomorrow!

Thankyou for this thread. My DD bit me also this evening and yesterday and I'm still in pain. Will try the Lansinoh

It bloody hurts!

It's my fault, I wasn't concentrating on feeding him, I was reading dd a story at the same time!

Silverette will have it completely healed within 2 days and will soothe it almost immediately. I dug mine out last week for the same reason.. and will keep them handy just encase!
