Nipple Question

Will my nipples callous if I use a nipple shield? Again, it really hurts to feed her with the nipple shield as well as without, but if my nipples won't callous with the shield then I want to try and bear through the pain without th3 shield.

Have you talked to your doctor? Could be that the beast is infected. Otherwise, you can use lanolin to help with the pain... they don't really callous (well mine didn't) but it gets easier. Good luck.
