Will my nipple ever heal? 😩

Yeashan

So my daughter has a tongue tie and she did a number on my left nipple while still in hospital. My right nipple can handle her with the shield but it doesn’t produce as much milk. I’ve been exclusively pumping the left and nursing the right. But it still keeps bleeding. I want to take a break completely so it can’t heal BUT I’m worried that my supply is going to get lower than it already is.

any suggestions?

She’s on the schedule with one ENT doctor and on the waitlist for another doctor. she won’t be seen for at least another two weeks for the tongue tie.
