nipples

Im 21 weeks and im a FTM my nipples are dry and itchy( and sore) and im not sure if this is normal I asked my midwife and she sort of ignored the question and said having sore boobs is normal... if any other mums have had this and can recommend anything that would be great

Mine were like that too a lot. They still are a little chapped but I ignore it and if if get itchy I try ignoring it or I give little pokes around because I don't want to get flakes. But it's definitely normal throughout pregnancy

Your nipples are chapped, I recommend using Vaseline. But, not scented. I didn't have to use anything for my first pregnancy. But, around the time I stopped breastfeeding. I started using nonscented Vaseline, it helped alot
