Cracked nipples? How to nurture your body when breastfeeding

July 31, 2017 By kunara-admin Leave a Comment

A newborn’s first few months at home is a special time; it’s also a time of many physical changes for mums. With the demands of a baby, mums can become so time poor their own wellbeing suffers. This includes caring for physical changes such as cracked nipples, stretch marks and increased dehydration. Caring for these symptoms may help both mum and bub relax and settle into a good routine faster. Read on for our recommendations that may help relieve these common physical changes…

CRACKED NIPPLES

Dry nipples can be common in the first few weeks feeding a newborn while still finding a routine. Gently massaging a healing balm, such as Moo Goo Udder Balm, may help to relieve sore nipples. It’s made from edible organic oils so that you don’t have to wash off before feeding your baby. Organic Extra Virgin Coconut Oil is another home remedy that may help soothe and moisturise dry nipples.

STRETCH MARKS

The changes in breast size and shape during pregnancy and breastfeeding can lead to stretch marks for many women. A supportive bra and nourishing creams may help stretch marks fade over time. Try Dr Organic Vitamin E Scar & Stretch Mark Serum, which contains protective antioxidants to help stimulate and heal the skin’s natural moisture levels.

NURSING TEA

Many mums find they’re very thirsty during breastfeeding. This is because the body needs to replace fluids lost in breast milk. Sipping on a soothing and calming tea may help relax both mum and bub, while boosting hydration levels. Try Weleda Nursing Tea, which contains 100% certified organic plant ingredients to support healthy milk production. It also contains antispasmodic and carminative properties that may help relieve flatulence, bloating and indigestion.
