Struggling to breastfeed

Katherine • mama of 2 || 20 years old

I’ve been breastfeeding my 6 week old and it’s been going great (rocky at the beginning) and we got thrush, we’ve been treating it and it’s been miserable, since getting it both of my nipples have cracked.

The pain when I feed her is excruciating I’m actually having anxiety about feeding her again.

What can I do today to obviously feed my baby but not be in pain??

I’m going to look into nipple shields, I tried pumping but the pain was the same. I can give her a bottle but then I’ll be full of milk and also don’t want to mess up my supply

It’s just so painful
