I am a mom of three and all were bf and i am now nursing my 9monthold and she bit me ouch and now it is bleeding any suggestions on how to care for it?? I NEVER had this happen ever!!!!! Help!!
I have no clue how to care for it. I guess it all depends on how badly it's been bitten. If it's just a tiny scratch I would just leave it alone, just keep it clean and dry. If it's a gash then I may put some antibiotic ointment on it between feedings (if that side is even still in business). Just make sure to clean it up before you feed so baby doesn't get any in her mouth! Nipples get a lot of blood, I think they are pretty vascular so they tend to heal up pretty quickly. But my best advice would be to keep it clean and dry and maybe a little ointment, but just a little.
