Ever since becoming pregnant the old norks have predictably expanded and become hypersensitive. Often have tingling, heavy feelings etc. and was expecting those.
What I wasn't expecting was the extreme reactions to temperatures and I am now becoming slightly worried about the breast feeding thing.
As soon as I get even a hint of a bit chilly they become very VERY painful and the nipples will harden then turn purple then white. The pain is extreme and I literally want to rip them off. One is often worse than the other. It feels like lots of tiny hot needles sticking into the whole breast. The only way to resolve this is to hold a hot water bottle on them or if it is really bad run a hot bath and soak them until they warm up.
Am I alone in this?? Is there anything else I can do as strapping a hot water bottle to my chest isn't always practical!
