Q.
#AskTheExpert While my wife has cracked nipples, should she still keep breastfeeding the baby, would it cause any problem to her ? Also can she use breast pump to express breast milk instead of feeding the child directly ?

Arti DubeyMom of a 4 yr 7 m old girl4 years agoA. Hi parent
please do consult a gynecologist for the treatment and medicine.
for some time say like 10 days let her express milk by breast pump so it will give her time to heal.
and after that use nipple shield to feed the baby and then shift to direct feeding.
when she's comfortable and have no pain.
