I used Lansinoh when I was BFing my son and it was awesome but would leave really bad grease marks and stain my shirts so I would make sure you wear a bra and pads if you get it. Check out motherslove...I have heard it is great! Ouch..good luck!

I have been using Palmers Olive Oil lotion, it is so good! I have been using it on my belly too because it is getting dried out a bit. :)

Lansinoh is the best thing to use and it doesn't have to be washed off before a feeding. There is also a gel like pad you can buy at the drug store to use in conjunction with the lansinoh, they are called "Soothies" They are great and really help.

Aww, I feel for you. Lansinoh! It's a bit salve-like but works wonders! And it's safe for the baby if your nursing. If you're not nursing, but plan to, put it on your list as a must have! (Make sure you wear nursing pads as it is a bit greasy and will mark up your undergarment or shirt.) Hope you feel better soon!

Is this normal? I am 18w2d and i put lotion on them all the time, and baby oil when i get out of the shower. i can't understand why they're so dry. so matter what i do my skin is so dry!

The skin is stretching and it just happens. I don't think I would be putting baby oil on them though. Even before the baby is born you can get a clogged milk duct or worse, you can get mast_tis which is very painful. I would stick to a non comedogenic lotion, or just go get some Lansinoh. You can get it at most grocerystores (with the baby items), drug stores, and Babies'R'Us.

hmm no baby oil ok...thanks! That would have sucked it i got clogged uh! ill have to go pick that up cuz they HURT so bad! even a light cottn t-shirt rubbing against them kills! LOL

You should probably get some disposable nursing pads to put in your bra as well. If you don't the Lansinoh will make your b___bs stick to all your clothes and will probably stain. Plus the nursing pads will keep you from chaffing. Glad to help.

I would agree to just try the Lansinoh and see what happens but one LAST warning (you have had it a lot I know -ha!) b___st pads because I ruined some of my favorite shirts! Good luck!!! :)
