Breast pumping ??

Question

Is it normal for nipples to hurt so bad while pumping?

Answer

It will likely be your flange size is wrong. Look online for a flange nipple ruler and it will help you to determine the right size flange you need

Answer

Some pain at first is normal. But if it’s super bad, I’m guessing it’s the wrong flange size.

Answer

No. If you just gave birth and are new to pumping, they might be sore in the beginning, but if you’re past that, than your flange is either too big or too small. Try getting in touch with a lactation consultant that will help you find the right flange and how to position the flange on your nipple correctly

Answer

Yes
