Breastfeeding gives one a kind feeling for the mother. It creates a special bond between a mother and her baby that no one can understand. A mother’s willingness to breastfeed her little one encourages her to take on any challenge during the process; however, the first weeks of breastfeeding are always associated with nipple soreness, cracks, and itchiness.
That’s why it’s very important for any pregnant mama to have a nipple cream to get ready for this phase. Nipple creams help soothe the area around the nipples.

Moreover, here are other tips that can help soothe sore nipples:
- After feedings, allow some breast milk to dry on the nipples as it contains natural softeners and antibodies that help nipples heal.
- After each feeding, let your nipples air-dry.
- Use nursing pads inside your bra to soak leaked milk.
- Don’t wash the area around the nipples with soap, especially if it contains alcohol because it increases dryness.
