As regards tea tree oil on the nipples - my sources in The Lawrence Review of
Natural Products states "Do not ingest the oil. Adverse effects have been
reported.....case report describes ataxia and drowsiness as a result or oral
TTO ingestion by a 17 month old male. "   "Various additional reports on TTO
toxicity can be referenced.". Also "Use of tea tree oil has resulted in
allergic contact eczema and dermatitis."  So probably not good to use on
eczema anywhere on the body.
