Title: One of my nipples hurts...
Post by: Brenda E on July 26, 2014, 06:46:10 PM
Yay!

That's about all there is to this thread.  Just really, really happy right now.  The meds seem to be working!

Isn't it a great feeling to have physical proof? That is until you bang them on something. Holy guacamole!! :o

Haha yayyyy welcome to the "side sleepers club"!
Also, investment in a padded bra may help at night, my first experience was woke up by a soft sheet (like silk) rubbing my nipple, I woke up feeling like they were being rubber with sandpaper n ripped off at same time. I gotta offer that advice, if I can save one person from said trauma I'll be happy I did lol! :) congrats. Prepare for itching, too.

Bra time it is.  Kinda weird, but isn't everything about this whole process?

The "Yay!" has worn off already.  Gets old reeeeaaal quick.

I can usually sleep on my front still but the pain is definitely there when I press down... I guess it varies in how much pain you get

Haha, wait until they both start to hurt!  Yesterday I went to get something out of the bed of my truck, leaned over the side to reach in and squarely pressed on both of mine against the side of the truck......hard.....  holy guacamole indeed!!

Yeah, no more of that!  ;)

Congratulations!

Varies per day (I think it might have something to do with when I apply a new patch) but sleeping is more of a problem now they're growing/hurting ^^
