Re: Sore nips!
keep putting lanolin on, after each feeding
it does go away...I SWEAR! I would tear up at every feeding in the beginning

Re: Sore nips!
first check the babies mouth for white stuff that won't wipe away to make sure it is not thrush. If all is good there, check the latch to make sure that it is not a latch issue and to ease discomfort you can use all purpose nipple ointment. I got the recipe from kellymom.com. It will get better. the first few weeks are the hardest but it is so worth it
