Ouch! My breasts hurt!

With your third baby breastfeeding is child's play. Or so I thought. But in the first few weeks with my third child it was very difficult for me to feed breastmilk because my breasts where hurting. Now I've been breastfeeding for three months with the right Breast Care and it's much easier.
My nipples were inflamed
My nipples weren't used to all that attention and became sore and cracked. My breastmilk had come in just three days before but my nipples were engorged and breastmilk was leaking. I spoke to my midwife and she recommended me some Medela Breast Care products for my nipples.

Breast Care the right way
You can imagine my relief. With the right Breast Care the swelling went down. I used the cooling compresses and the Disposable Bra Pads absorbed my leaking breastmilk. It was wonderful. I was shown how to latch my baby on better and how to use the Nipple Shields to give my nipples a rest. So I continued feeding breastmilk.
Fast Healing
In addition to this, I also used the soothing PureLan Nipple Cream. My nipples soon healed and I was able to enjoy breastfeeding once more.
