Momcozy nipple cream! I heard coconut oil is really good too and a heating pad might also help. Do you pump?

@Kaitlynn not yet I’m only 34 weeks pregnant, I want to start but I don’t want to induce labor or anything. I’ve been using my reusable nipple pads by soaking them in warm water and putting them on

I’d definitely recommend some kind of cream then if you’re able or the coconut oil. They’re probably irritated. Mine always got like that toward the end.

It may sound daft to you, but my breasts leaked large amounts the week I gave birth to my daughter. I used sanitary towels (ALWAYS) in my bra and I found that worked better than nipple pads at the time, as I was leaking through nipple pads within half an hour. I still leak now though as I have quite a great supply, so I breastfeed and pump and I don’t leak, so it will get better but just persevere. Not long left mama! x

Not sure if you are in the UK but the boots breast pads are good they are large they are in a brown box z
