It still hurts?


It still hurts when he latches on, as far as I know his latch is fine and HV agreed so I don't understand? Is it still meant to hurt 2 weeks into feeding?

with me and harry it took about 6-7 weeks until it all settled down and stopped hurting, if your latch is fine then it should seetle soon, most people allow about 6 weeks for it all to become fine x

Yeah - give it a bit longer for your nipples to 'toughen up' - not literally BTW....

If it only hurts for the first 10/20 seconds or so, it's fine and wont last much longer

You are doing really well hun. This is the point lots of mums give up and I'm sure you can see why! I dont think it will be long before you start to see a real improvement
