I second silverettes! They seriously help to soothe the nips and protect them from rubbing against bra. Without them I might have stopped breastfeeding. And definitely try to apply nipple balm every chance you get. Check the latch also, it needs to be a deep latch (baby’s lips open up like fish lips). Hang in there, it gets better. Soon you will have “iron nipples” and breastfeeding won’t be painful anymore. 🙃

Try silverettes, or any silver nipple cups. Put a drop of bm in the cup and place it over your nip in the bra. It helps to heal, as well as prevent additional pain from your nips rubbing against your bra. I find it to be a game changer, my nips hurt so bad at the beginning until I couldn't sleep.
