Breastfeeding

One nipple hurts!!!

One of my nipples hurts so so so much when my LO eats from that side. I am going to LC tomorrow. But until then, would it be bad if I just fed her from the other side and pumped the painful side? Or would that mess with my supply? (She frequently only eats from 1 side anyways).

  • I don't think it would hurt your supply if you only fed on one side for a little while, just make sure that you pump the unused side so that your still produce milk. Have you tried a nipple shell? They are good for relieving sore nipples and giving them a break from rubbing on your clothes and keeping them clean and dry so it can heal.
