Hi Pat,
I have a client who can't stand to feel the baby sucking on her nipples
even though she loves breastfeeding????????
She uses a nipple shield which gives her a bit less direct stim. Her baby
is 4 months old and I'm sure she will use the shield for as long as she is
nursing.
Assuming there is no physical cause ie: yeast, vasospasm, cracks...........
a shield might help.
Off to work....
Warmly,
Star
