When Vix first started breastfeeding Zachary everything was going fine until after a couple of days her nipples started to get sore and a bit cracked. She really wanted to continue breastfeeding so that the milk for Zach would be sufficient and flowing correctly for him.
The midwife came round the next day and Vikki asked her if there was anything to reduce the soreness so that feeding could continue. She immediately recommended Lansinoh which can be bought from most pharmacies,supermarkets, etc.
As far as Vix is concerned Lansinoh was a lifesaver, as soon as she put it on she felt immediate relief and managed to feed Zachary straight away. Even with the ointment still on as it’s 100% safe for babies.
The first couple of times the ointment was on, Zach pulled a funny face and kinda wondered what it was. But he still latched on no problem and continued feeding as usual.
Vikki’s been using it ever since and Zach has no problems feeding whether it’s just been applied, or whether it was applied an hour ago.
If your suffering with sore nipples or are preparing to breastfeed, pick up a tube of Lansinoh from the supermarket or pharmacy the next time you go by.
