Nipple about to fall off...

Me

Hello ladies

For those of you who are breastfeeding; I’m 1 week pp and I am currently pumping and storing it but I’m also giving baby formula as well.

Well I cannot feel my nipples anymore. I put the special cream as much as possible but they are cracked and slightly bleeding. They burn like no tomorrow, I’m not sure how much longer I can do this. I’m pumping bc putting baby directly to the breast is extremely painful, I seem to find pumping less painful.

I want to do it as much as possible not to slow down production but I’m just not motivated with this pain.

Any suggestions ?! I’m desperate.

TIA
