Itchy nipples!!!

Oh my god my boobs and in particular nipples will not stop itching like crazy. I've put a tonne of moisturiser on but it's not helping. I'm 16+4. Anyone got any ideas?

Try putting a breast pad in your bra to make it more comfortable. Do you need a larger bra too?

They’re most probably growing rapidly hence the itching. Try a hot shower and gently rubbing with a flannel. Lansinoh is a brilliant cream to put on before and during breastfeeding. I really recommend it, and it’ll help soothe the itching/irritation.
