  I had this experience with my first - but it did get better! Can you pump a feeding or a few to give them a break?  I found that helped.

  Are you religiously applying lanolin after each feeding and before and after showering?

  I am at almost 3 weeks and mine still hurt...though they are improving.  I have heard this is normal...my friends tell me 2 months

  Mine hurt w/ DS1 for six weeks. This time w/ DS2 they never got anywhere close to as sore as last time.

  I'm with you...mine are still tender and it hurts at times when clothing rubs against them.  It's definitely better than the first 2 weeks, but still tender.

  From what my mom told me this shouldn't be the case. Have you gone to see a lactation consultant?

  I would say that your latch may be a bit off.  I found this to be really helpful.
