If you've experienced excruciating breastfeeding pain including grazed, cracked or bleeding nipples, you'd probably give anything to find out why it's happening and more importantly what you can do to change things.

Why do so many women struggle with Breastfeeding Pain?

Inconsistent, conflicting information and forceful breastfeeding techniques being taught in the hospital system often result in breastfeeding pain for many first time and experienced mums. Women are often told they need to "do better" by the hospital system, leaving them feeling like a failure who can’t provide the nourishment her baby needs. ⁣

No woman should ever have to feel like this.⁣

Want to know how to relieve nipple pain when breastfeeding?

Dr Robyn's Number #1 suggestion to relieve breastfeeding pain is to avoid the forceful breastfeeding technique, known as the cross-cradle hold.

The reality is that many health professionals are still 'teaching' women to use this forceful breastfeeding technique, and it's not an uncommon story for women to report having already seen multiple consultants before experiencing relief with a more gentle, intuitive approach known as The Thompson Method.

The good news is that breastfeeding pain from damaged nipples can be relieved, often with some gentle adjustments, based on the principles of The Thompson Method so that women can continue breastfeeding as long as they choose to.

How to avoid Breastfeeding Pain. What every expecting mother should know.

By learning how to reduce the risk of unnecessary intervention, many women using the gentle approach of The Thompson Method are avoiding the common complications, including breastfeeding pain and nipple damage that particularly occur in the early hours and days of breastfeeding.

Better breastfeeding begins with better preparation, during pregnancy.

With pain being the #1 reason why women discontinue breastfeeding, The Thompson Method is becoming a better option for more and more women to learn how to avoid or overcome a poor latch and breastfeed their babies gently and pain-free.
