Bitten Nipple

My 20 mth Ds bit my nipple by accident when we were tickling, i was clothed, but those little gnashers got a good grip. Now it hurts when i try to feed DS.

Any advice?

Put some breast milk on it. Or you could get some Lansinoh cream from Waitrose, or Mothercare. It hurts doesn't it!

If it hurts too much to feed, could you express from that side, and feed him on the other side till it's healed?

Try to leave it out in the air so it heals quicker. If you can't leave it uncovered you could use a Breast Shell from Medela . In the meantime don't feed him from that boob if possible. Good Luck
