Nipple cream for breast feeding

Can anyone suggest a good nipple cream. Mind are very painful but lanolin doesn't seem to touch them. Tried ribbing breast milk on them too, and that's not helped either.?

  • Lansinoh worked best for me. Would it be worth getting checked for thrush? Felt like needles through mine. Hope it gets better quickly x

  • Or try nipple shields for every other feed to give you a break?

  • Lansinoh here too. Have you tried using different positions to give different parts of your nipples a rest? That has worked with me (so far) x

  • Good suggestions so far, I spent a lot of the time topless letting the air get to them too! Hope they heal soon. Oh and I'm not on here much these days so missed ur BA - huge congratulations, so pleased for you :) x

  • Will try those suggestions, thanks.
