Dry Nipples?

Does anyone else have dry nipples? Mine are so dry and the skin is starting to peel. Can anyone recommend a good lotion to help with this problem? I plan on breastfeeding, don't know if that matters. Thank you

Re: Dry Nipples?

  • Lanolin.. I used lanolin when i was breastfeeding last time because my nipples got so dry they actually cracked and bled.. yes very painful! So im going to start putting the lanolin on them before baby comes to get them ready for breast feeding! They say not to put regular lotion on them because that makes them worse.. So try to find some lanolin! GL!

  • I'm having the same problem.  I've been using Gold Bond Shea Butter ultimate healing lotion - it is a godsend!  If I put it on at bedtime, I'm good for the entire next day, the itching only returns if I miss a night.
