Blood Out of Nipples...?? Posted: 02-12-06 01:07am
Hey girls... I was taken a shower and
usually I squeeze each nipple and rub in a
little milk just to keep from cracking and
things like that... But just now I did it
and there was blood along with some of the
fluid... Has anyone ever experienced this
and if so what is it...??? Is this
normal..?

Maybe you shouldnt squeeze them. Not
until the baby's here :shock:
use vaseline on them if they get cracked
or dry, it really works.

Yeah dont squeeze them...I used some cream
that is specifically for dried
nipples...When breastfeeding...You can
find the cream in the baby section at
stores most the time..Its in with the
breast pads and things like that...You
squeezing them has probably irritated them
and caused the bleeding...Not a good
idea...

I have a book titled 'what to expect when
you're expecting'. It indicates that if
you experience bleeding from the
nipples...You should contact your doctor
the same day. I hope this helps...Don't
stress yourself over this...It may turn
out to be nothing...But you really should
talk to your doctor asap.
Best of luck to you. :)

no problem. It's on page 117 under 'when
to call the practitioner'.
I love this book! I don't think there's
much in there that's not covered.
Let me know how everything turns out. :)
