A. check the latching technique,  baby's lips should be flanged out. most of the  areaola should be in baby's mouth.   it should not hurt. it should just feel like tugging. gently put little finger from baby corner of the mouth, unlatch , then latch again. sore nipples are common initially, apply breast milk on them and air dry, gradually it will recover. still if feeding doesn't establish properly, consult your paediatrician.
