Don' t worry even I faced a similar prob so what I tried was tied thread around my nipples whole day long and remove them only while feeding ... it works believe me !!

Hi Sonali,

I had similar problem for nearly 15 days. My baby was not able to latch on to my right breast. I was feeding her mostly on my left breast. It takes 15-20 days atleast. Don' t worry and Don' t give up. Keep trying. This happens to everybody.

RE:Adult breast feeding
I was not breastfeed in my childhood hence the idea of sucking and feeding from a woman's full, engorged breasts has infatuated me. It is a fantasy that drives me wild like nothing else, just the thought of laying my head in a woman's lap while she brings her swollen nipples to my mouth. Ideally, I'd like to finally explore this with the right female. If you are in or near... - Sanjayhyd [View Message]
