Hey Sara,

I've been lying down for all feeds the last 3 days and it's really helped my R nipple and the pain I was feeling has been reduced dramatically.... finally after 6wks I am feeling some 'light at the end of the tunnel' for my R side!! Perhaps not only have I perfected the attachment but also Ava has?
She still fusses and pulls on and off on L side sometimes particlularly when in cradle position but I've learnt to just take her off, burp her then try her again.

Anyway, just wanted to send you some and let you know it does get easier. I didn't think it would but it does. Keep persisting. You can do it.

If your nipple is really quite sore and b.feeding is painful, then try to express (with electric pump!) and that will help keep your milk supply up on that side and at the same time give you chance to heal your nipple. This is what i've had to do a few times with the R side when it was so damaged while it healed. Although I do hope you can avoid everythnig i've been thru as it's not easy expressing in between feeds and all that.... very hard work!!!! (I still am)
