White nipples after nursing

All of a sudden my nipples turn white after nursing. I figured it was a bad latch even though baby definitely ate and I didn’t have any pain. I’m not doing anything different so idk why this is happening. Also happened when I pumped. I have an appointment with a lc in a few days but wanted to see if anyone else has gone through this?

This just happened to me for the first time two days ago too! I'm still not sure why either.

This sometimes happens to me!

Do you clean baby’s mouth? Could be thrush

Mine got like that too! Never understood why.. I never got pain or had any problems expressing milk (I would express/pump then bottle feed) I just took it as my ducts were open and my nipples we’re getting over stimulated in a way? It does go away though, well for me it did.
