Two weeks postpartum struggling with breastfeeding. Any advice, tips, encouragement?

Two weeks in and I’m struggling, the latch wasn’t great to begin with, so it caused cracked, sore nipples. At the moment I’m mainly using one, whilst the other is healing. Any tips on how to heal nipple quick? It’s so hard when you want to connect and bond with baba, but you’re sitting through a breastfeeding session in pain Help please x

hey mum, Lansinoh HPA Lanolin Nipple Cream - 10ml and Lansinoh 3-in-1 Breast Therapy Hot and Cold Breast Pads 2s. Really helped me when I first started breastfeeding 💕 Also, confined in your health visitor there are many classes and a lot of help for new mums breastfeeding Youve got this x
