Can breastfeeding hurt?
Answer: YES
Breastfeeding can hurt. You may have painful uterine contractions along with the pain from breastfeeding, especially in the early days after birth. However, you shouldn’t stop breastfeeding if your nipples hurt. You should keep breastfeeding, but you should get help to see why it’s hurting.
With the right support with positioning your baby for breastfeeding and making sure your baby is correctly attached to the breast, sore nipples can be avoided. If a mother faces breastfeeding challenges like sore nipples, support from a lactation consultant or other skilled professional can help them overcome the issue.
