I've been trying to dry my breast milk up and I've been putting cabbage on them everyday and my nipple is starting to look like this and it itches so bad somedays. Is it normal? My other nipple looks completely normal

Question

Answer

I used cabbage they tell u don't cover the nipple

Answer

I would stop using cabbage right away. I did the frozen cabbage leafs with my first and the smell of the defrosting cabbage made me throw up ALL the time. I hated it. So with my second child I just weened him off over a few months. I started to express a bit in the shower, only pump if necessary, and strictly nursed him at night for a month then every other night the second month and then it started to dry up on its own. Everyone is different. You just have to listen to your body so that you don't become engorged and get mastitis. Good luck!!

Answer

You don't need to put cabbage on your boobs In order for your milk to dry up! I have two babies and I've never breastfed. All I do is wear a tight sports bra and use ice packs. Usually starts drying up in a couple day. I'd see a doc about it!

Answer

It could be some sort of fungal infection or some
kind of skin reaction........either way, I would call your Ob and have them take a look
