What are my nipples doing? They're bleeding...

I have never heard of it before either, so I am afraid I can't help much there... but I wanted to drop in and share a with you.

I haven't heard of it either but that doesn't mean much - I'm no expert I was just going to suggest getting some Lansinoh (you get it from the chemist) to put on your nipples as a protection for them. It is completely safe (made from lamb's fat???) and they recommended it me after DD was born for sore, cracked nipples. I would also suggest mentioning it to your midwife or caregiver just to ahve it checked out. Hope that helps.

Yeah I haven't heard of it before either - hence my asking!

Husband said "Are they meant to do that?" I said "No idea!"

How are they now, Amanda? I'd be asking your MW or Dr about it asap. Sounds like some kind of weird infection to me too. You don't want to have to deal with pain like that when you're this pregnant! Plus, you'll no doubt want to get on top of it before you need to breastfeed bubs... Not long now!
