inverted or flat nipples

[candacegur]

Does anyone have inverted or flat nipples and have tried breastfeeding before? What was your experience like?

I have one inverted and one that's not.. weird Ikkk.. I always thought something was wrong with me until I had my first child and they told me that I'd be amazed at how many women actually have inverted nipples.. well anyways to get to the questuon.. it is hard to breastfeeding feed on that one nipple but I still did it with my two boys and now will also be breastfeeding with my baby girl!! Don't give up bc it can be done!! Good luck!

I have flat nipple but just my left one haha
im getting a pump and I pray and hope that it helps because with my first baby I only breastfed with my right and it was hard for me .

I used to have flat nipples but ever since I got pregnant my nipples have gotten bigger and are hard all the time..it's really annoying lol how far are you?

I did have inverte/flat nipples, but I had my nipple pierced for a couple years before I had my son. I took them out in the third trimester. It helped to get them ready for breastfeeding.  It was still hard for my son to latch but that's also because he had some nipple confusion due to being bottle fed when first born due to a traumatic birth. We had to eliminate bottles entirely which was tougg. I'm glad we did though. I breastfed him for 2 years. Oviously weaning towards the end of that time.
