Preventing and Treating Breastfeeding Nipple Pain - Part 1

This is the most frequent chief complaint I hear from my breastfeeding patients. In this two-part series I will cover: • What's normal and what's not. Spoiler Alert 🚨 breastfeeding hurts. • Anatomical findings that can increase the likelihood of persisting or worsening nipple pain and trauma • Things moms can do to prepare for breastfeeding and prevent nipple damage • Medications and Ointments you can use • When to call your OB provider AND IBCLC • What to do to troubleshoot and resolve nipple pain • How to use some of my favorite ‪@haakaa_nz‬ products to prevent and treat common conditions related to nipple pain and trauma.

Up until a month ago (May 2022) I owned and operated a thriving private lactation clinic in Seattle. Now I am a full-time mom and content creator living in the Bay Area. I am obsessed with all things BUMPS, BABIES, and BOOBS and enjoy helping new and expectant parents navigate the often bumpy/turbulent 1st year. I plan on re-opening my practice in the Bay Area in 2023 but in the meantime will provide virtual consultations. I am new to this kind of video content production so bear with me as I figure things out. #breastfeeding #breastfeedingpain #nipplepain #ibclc #theboobboss #ruekhosa #nursepractitioner #lactation #haakaa #invertednipples #dimplednipples #nippletrauma #shortnipples #bayarealactation #boymom #breastfeedingexpert #breastfeeding #breastfeedingpain #nipplepain #ibclc #theboobboss #ruekhosa #nursepractitioner #lactation #haakaa #invertednipples #dimplednipples #nippletrauma #shortnipples #bayarealactation #boymom #breastfeedingexpert
