Hi All,
I would appreciate any input. I have a mom I worked with at 6 days old, she
was complaining of sore breasts when the baby sucked. At that point, latch
looked good, no pinched nipple or anything, oral anatomy was fine, I got the
feeling she was extra sensitive and feeling the milk come through the ducts
or something along those lines. I was sure it would get better, and gave
her support to stick it out. It did get better and totally went away by
about 3 weeks. Baby has been gaining weight beautifully. She just now
called me back that her baby is three months old and the pain started again.
It is only when the baby sucks, in the breast, not the nipple, no visible
signs of thrush. Pain stops when baby stops eating. Pain is not related to
how full or empty the breast is, but she does say it is worse at night.
She has not gotten her period. It still hurts when she pumps, but not as
much. I am stumped. Anyone have any insight?
