Sore boob/nipples

Morning all, I've been trying to collect colostrum for the past few days as I'm being induced next week (when I'm 38+1) and as I've been diagnosed with gestational diabetes in the past 10 days they've suggested doing it. Anyway, I've been trying since 36+4 and nothing is happening so far. I've been doing it after a shower when I'm nice and warm, spending 15 mins or so massaging and then trying to squeeze around the areola/nipple area. However the last couple of days my right boob has been so sore, there's no swelling or redness but it feels rubbed raw and because my nipples seem perfectly erect - bloody sensitive too! Should I just persevere through the pain?
