Aw, good luck sa second time around, mama! The first few days talaga kailangan ng patience, start breastfeeding as soon as possible after delivery, kahit colostrum lang muna, kasi that stimulation really helps ang milk to come in; a few of us din nakita na ang frequent feeding (every 2-3 hours) talaga ang game-changer para mag-establish ang supply. For sore nipples, proper latch is everything, make sure baby's mouth covers the whole areola, hindi lang the tip, kaya I'd suggest ask the hospital midwife or lactation consultant to guide you right away habang fresh pa ang lahat; honestly, I started using Mama's Choice Nipple Cream after a few days of pain sa first baby ko and it's pregnancy-safe and breastfeeding-safe, so okay gamitin even while baby's nursing. One of my mum friends also swears na important ang good positioning at breaks in between feeding para ma-heal yung nipples, kaya don't rush. But if you're really struggling after a week, best talaga to see a lactation specialist kasi sometimes may latch issues na kailangan ng professional help, wag mo pagsahan alone like I did first time, okay?
