[quote=Anonymous]OP, get a prescription for triple nipple cream if your nipples are beat up. It's a compound of Mupirocin (for staph), Miconazole powder (to prevent thrush) and some anti-inflammatory. My ped prescribed it but your OB may be able to as well. It was a life-saver, as it seems impossible for cracked, etc. nipple to heal when you're nursing every 2 hours. One of my lactation consultants also told me to alternate a bit with pumping/bottle feeding and nursing to give my nipples a break - though that is only a possibility if you are comfortable introducing a bottle (which we did a 1 week with no problem... and I'm still BF at 11 mos!)[/quote]
