A. Try to start pumping. Instead of expressing the milk it is better that use a breast pump as it is relatively easy. You can apply nip care ointment on the nipple cracks.Write Your Answer Here

A. Apply Coconut oil onto your nipples they will heal gradually otherwise Boroline also is a good option and second of all I’m just going to advise you that if you are having low breastfeed you can start having lactation capsules to increase your lactation otherwise start giving formula feeding as well
