Areola skin dry and comes of after pumping

Hi mummies i just started pumping and breast feeding less than a week i noticed the areola side has skin peeling of on some parts is this normal but its not itchy? My nipple is not itchy or red tho. I tried using nipple cream to soothe and moisture it .#firstmom #firsttimemom

it's fine, probably just your skin trying to get used to latching and pumping. if it doesn't hurt, and you're alrdy using nipple cream,I don't think u need to worry about it
