Ouch. Hurt myself pumping

[chandasz]

Any words of advice?

I seem to have injured my left nipple. It's almost like blood was coming through the pores from pumping maybe too hard? It's got little red scabs and it's tender.

Sore when I nurse or pump.

Any advice? I'm putting some milk on it every time I have to pump.

I feel so goofy. I've been pumping forever-- I should have known better.

Lansinoh??? Maybe... Ouch mama, hope it is better fast!

well don't feel bad...i pumped too hard for a few weeks and had sore nips before i realized the suction was p too high and this is the second one i have pumped for

What pump were you using? Did you bend your nipple? How did you do it?

This happens to me some when my toddler quickly turns up my pump.. Sounds like a blood blister... Id just nurse it back to normal and continue with the milk.

Whew... all better!
