Heaven

Matie I haven't read the entire thread so if my suggestion is mentioned previously I'm sorry.

I too had a funny looking nipple after DS feed, it was so painful I felt like I might faint. It sort of looked like a lipstick if that makes sense.

What I was told was to keep my back straight up against the chair (don't lean over, even a little bit) and bring him to the breast. I tried it and it worked. Even leaning forward a little bit would mean my attachment was all wrong. I can't explain why, but leaning over was what was putting his attachment out.

I would get up, sit on a kitchen chair (as opposed to couch) every time to feed.

It made all the difference, took a while to heal but we went on to feed for 13 months and I was at the stage where I couldn't face another feed.

HTH hun and as I said sorry if this is something you've tried.
