Itchy breast feeding

Hi guys. I’ve just stopped breast feeding. Dr said as down to two lots of two ounces to stop expressing completely. Breasts so itchy now. Is this normal. Can’t find any info only just about itching during feeding

Yes I think it’s a hormonal response and should die down soon. You could try some moisturiser or lasinoh cream to help.

How interesting to read this, I stopped breastfeeding 3 weeks ago now and am encountering the same thing! Having given in to the relentless itching, my poor boob is now very sore and dry so treating with aveeno moisturiser and sudocrem but it's so irritating!!! Hoping your itching stops soon, it's reassuring to read that it's not just me with this! 😄

I stopped breastfeeding a year ago and I still have itchy boobs quite frequently and it’s so annoying.

They’re itching now actually Grin
