Ask a QuestionMom of a 4 yr 11 m old boy4 years ago
Q.
My baby is 2.5 months old and is exclusively breastfed. However I have cracked nipples now and feeding has become extremely painful. I am using nipple shield during feeds n applying nipple healing cream but is not helping. Can I express milk and supplement with formula for couple of days until the cracks heal and resume breast feeding? Please advise.
