Blood in breastmilk?

Does this happen to anyone?

It happens to me when I pump every other day or so.

Why is this happening and how can I stop it??

THANKS!

Have you tried lanolin between pumpings? I don't pump yet, so I unfortunately don't have any good advice.

I had this (not pumping, just feeding) because my nipples were cracked. Just take care of them - let them air dry with breast milk on them then rub with lanolin. Hopefully it will clear up soon!
