Hi Karen hope you and Sophie are doing well.
LOL Kirsten! mmmm donuts!!
I had some awful nipples for the first week and a bit, nasty cracks, blisters and bleeding scabs whenever she fed. For me it was all attachment and the lactation consultants really helped. ABA might be able to help too and it is worth persevering because after I got through the immense pain (and heaps of tears too) it doesn't hurt a bit and sometimes it tickles I think it also took Ruby a while to get used to it too, and to learn to open her mouth wide enough. It's very worth while getting someone to help you!

No idea about my weight... no scales LOL
