Default Blister

When I first started nursing dd I got a blister on my nipple. It scabbed over and I thought all was well. Today I noticed a big chunk of skin or scab is coming off. I was wondering if it is ok to keep nursing or should I pump until it heals. I know I need to stop using the breast pads I am cause they are keeping them moist not dry, any other suggestions. It hurts but not so bad that I cant handle it here and there.

sorry there is no puntuation, my computer is doing ; instead of backslash, : instead of question mark

Mine did that with all three kids. with tierney it peeled 2xs.

try to let them air dry after each nursing session and use lanolin. did you get any?

i never stopped nursing. you should get a blister with a proper latch, though i am sure you know that

Keep nursing. It won't hurt the baby any. Your nipples do weird things when you start nursing. Olive oil is another thing you can put on your nipples if you have none of the other items suggested on hand.

Does your Doctor's office have a lactation consultant? Someone who can help you make sure you have the correct latch. Or see if there is a LLL in your area, they can help you.

Awesome guys, I pumped one bottle but I will keep nursing now. It hurts but the lanolin and keeping it dry is already helping.
