So my nipples...

Are DRY and peeling. Like as if I went tanning and got burned. Ick. Quite disgusting and no matter how much lotion I use, they stay the same!

Lansinoh lanolin cream works for this--reg.lotion will prob dry them out more.  i had the same thing when i was pregnant with DD.  just put it at night before you go to bed--make sure you wear something you don't care about though, it may leave a residue.

Mine itch like crazy!!!  I tried lotion, but it would only work for a few hours then I was back to thoughts of cutting them off and scratching until I could get to a restroom or home and lotion up again.  I tried Vaseline a few hours ago, and so far so good.  Mine don't look dry, but they sure are red and irritated.

This. I love that goo. Also, you will probably need it anyway if you decide you want to BF.

Perfect, thanks for the advice. Where can I find that cream?

Mine too, and they're awfully itchy! I leave marks on myself.

Mine too!  I used Burts Bee's Mama Bee oil after shower and it is helping. It is so weird.

Mine are killing me as well.  Itching and peeling like crazy.  I have tried different lotions and creams...but I'm headed to Target in a bit and will try what you ladies have mentioned!
