Sore boob :(

[Jajis]

Pointless thread really, but my left boob is SO sore. On Sunday I noticed a tiny bit of blood under the nipple after I'd expressed some milk, and now it aches constantly and is so painful when he feeds from that side, but if I avoid it and start the feed on the other side I just end up with a massive left boob and then it hurts even more

Small boy only had his two bottom teeth up until now, and that was bad enough, but now that his top ones are coming through I imagine it's only going to get worse until I stop breastfeeding which isn't going to be for two months at the very least, and hopefully won't be for a while after that.

Grrr and sob

I'm sorry to her this! I don't really have any good advice! Do you have a good nipple cream? Maybe u could apply it in between breastfeeding?

Thank you, I think I was just having a self indulgent whingey moment earlier, sorry

I've got lansinoh cream so I've been putting that on it, but it still really hurts though - his bedtime feed I actually winced each time he sucked - which made him unlatch and giggle at me each time
