A. If you still want to breastfeed, ensure that the baby latches on to your breast correctly. Wipe the breasts with clean water and allow them to dry. Change breast pads frequently in case you are using them. Massaging with warm oil moisturizes the affected area, keeping the skin supple and healthy by reducing dryness. Use olive oil or sweet almond oil or coconut oil. Use an ice pack before you feed the baby. Or express a little milk onto the nipple and allow it to air dry. The anti bacterial properties of breast milk heal sore nipples.

A. Wash your hands before breastfeeding. To help milk flow, you can apply a warm washcloth to the breast and massage it gently. Try expressing milk using a breast pump and then feed to your baby. Check Babyhug Manual Breast Pump With 2 Suction Modes : It is economical and comes with one year warranty from the date of purchase. It is compact and can be carried anywhere and anytime. It can be operated manually using one hand. It is easy to assemble and clean.
