Soft nipples
So my nipples are kinda soft... As in they need to be stimulated to 'get up' which affects our latch. Is this normal?

Yeah…nipple guards can help bring them out giving the baby a bigger ‘target’
If you have a pump, do a couple pumps before feeding, to draw the nipples out, that helps us
Thank you! Do some BF positions not work for you bc of this? Can't imagine doing the side laying position tbh because of it Is baby supposed to draw it out and then we readjust them Sorry I know stupid questions but genuinely wondering!!
The pump thing deffo works too! I can vouch for that. Sometimes doing the ‘Ruby ball’ hold (that’s what my midwife calls it) has helped too…unless that’s what you mean by side position. Not stupid, I had all the same questions. Pump & guards 💪🏻
