I have a five month old son and br___tfeed. Of course when I first started nursing, my nipples were very sore and bleeding. But I havn't had that problem for a long time. For the last two weeks, my nipples have been so sore that I can't hardly stand to feed him (just sore, not bleeding). It was just the left side, but now it is both. I have tried lanolin but that hasn't helped. Could I have an infection? Could it be a different way he his latching on? I've checked for teeth, but none yet. Any other mom's have this problem?

Is it possible that he's/you've got thrush? Has he gotten lazy with his latch?

No this hasn't happened to me yet. If you start getting flu symptoms, you probably have an infection.

It's starting to get better. I think It was due to him nursing non-stop during the night.
