A HUGE Thank You to all who sent idea/information for treating/preventing nipple blebs. Talked to this lady on Thur morning to follow up on how things were going - had recommended extra virgin olive oil/coconut oil for comfort with pumping/thrush, along with feeding off unaffected side and pumping or manually expressing affected side. She reported after a couple applications of the coconut oil, the blebs popped and she has been nursing comfortably since. Still gave her the info for future reference. I just LOVE Lactnet!!!! I learn so much from everyone's collective wisdom, practice, and support.
