The good news is with the right support, you can get past the first few days (or weeks, or sometimes even months) of breastfeeding fumbling. With a little luck and a lot of persistence, you and baby can drift off into the realm of nursing bliss. In the meantime, here’s a look at some of the most common breastfeeding problems you may experience and how to swiftly solve them. Sore nipples are a common reason women throw in the towel on breastfeeding. Many women report a “pins and needle” tingling in the first 30 seconds or so of nursing. But if your sore nipples are caused by trauma from your baby, the uncomfortable sensation will persist during breastfeeding, and often get worse. The good news is that this is often short-lived within a few weeks, your nipples often “toughen up.” But if it persists, you most likely have nipple injury, caused by a baby with a poor latch, and/or a barracuda suck, as well as possibly too high of a setting on a breast pump.
