Breastfeeding has a lot of benefits to offer you and your baby, but if you haven’t experienced it, you may wonder what to expect. Much like birth stories, it seems that every pregnant mom hears different stories from friends, family, and even complete strangers.

The truth is your breastfeeding experience is unique to you. While it’s likely that many moms will experience some breastfeeding discomfort and sensitivity due to sore nipples in the beginning, breastfeeding shouldn't be painful. So, what’s normal when it comes to breastfeeding pain and discomfort? And what can you do about it?

Sore Nipples

For many women, nipple problems are the worst in the first week after giving birth. Struggles with infant positioning and latch are the most common causes of nipple pain during this time. As mom and baby gain more experience with breastfeeding and latching, nursing becomes more enjoyable and relaxing for both.

Another reason for discomfort is that your breasts and nipples become more sensitive during pregnancy and after giving birth. Hormonal changes are preparing your breasts for breastfeeding and this can increase sensitivity and cause discomfort.

Additionally, your baby will be nursing frequently during the first part of their life, and this repeated suction and moisture can cause discomfort and affect your skin, just like your lips get dry when exposed to different conditions.

But just because nipple discomfort is common doesn’t mean you need to “tough it out” or that there is nothing you can do about it. Breastfeeding shouldn’t be painful, and pain is an indication that you and your baby may need a little extra help. Remember that this is a new experience for both of you, and it may take time and practice to get the hang of it. Getting comfortable with positioning and latch is your first step, and seeking the help of a lactation consultant can make a big difference. Visits may even be covered by your insurance. You might find it beneficial to do your research ahead of time to find a provider convenient to you.
