Inverted nipple and breastfeeding

Hi ladies.. i am first time mom to be and i have been anxious about my breasts. I have inverted nipples and i know some in my family also do have. I am yet to ask my gynac the impact but is there anyone with similar condition? Were you able to breastfeed?

hello! I had inverted and flat nipples. LC suggested using massage mode on breast pump to make nipple go out. I wasn't breastfeeding my baby the first few days due to my nipples. LC taught how to pull the nipple out. you can Google about it also. i used breast pump for 2 days +massage and let my baby latch on even though it was slightly inverted. but have to feed baby FM first so he isn't frustrated. after the 3rd day, my nipples were out when given the massage or baby latch on.
