Default Re: Nip pain (x-post)

she could have been yanking trying to get a faster flow. maybe your left breast lets down slower than your right?

my right breast always produced more, but let down slower than my left one.

to help the pain go away sooner, you could uyse breast shells (not to be confused with nipple shields) and you could get a rx for apno. if you don't want ot try the breastshells, you can try just letting air on your nipples more, and sunlight if possible (depending on how close your home is to your neighbors etc)
