Lansinoh HPA 40ml Cream for Sore Nipples and Cracked Skin

56g Lansinoh for Breastfeeding for MumsI'm 10 days in to feeding a new baby and without this cream I probably wouldn't be continuing or would certainly have given up. I had cracked and sore nipples almost to the stage of bleeding and this cream just kept them soft enough to prevent complete breakdown of the nipple. A thin layer of this cream over the nipple just gave it enough time to heal. I also found that using this cream with Savoy Cabbage leaves straight out the fridge was a God send the cream and cold leaf worked a treat. I would highly recomend this cream to any mother who wants to continue to breast feed but is struggling with the pain. I am just coming out the other side and it is starting to become much easier to feed as the nipples are starting to toughen up. I still use the cream just to make sure we don't go back to those early days. I was also advised by a midwife to use it on my nether regions in place of vaseline after birth, please speak to your midwife about this before using, but it really helped me to get past the stinging sensation as the midwife says it has a mild aneastetic which can help to dull the pain. It really worked for me but as I said, check with your midwife first.I am finding breastfeeding easier everyday now so thanks to this product and of course lots of encouragement from others and a good part of self will we got throught the worst of early breast feeding trauma.

This stuff isn’t cheap but it is a soft, pure lanolin that is the best treatment for irritated skin.. Throw away all the chemical-laden proprietary skin creams and get back to nature. A little goes a long way.

Unfortunately in the hospital my son was suffering some mucus problem due to forceps delivery and as a result he wanted to sleep the entire afternoon into the evening which as any mum will know, did not impress the hospital staff when it came to being allowed home. With a little help from a support worker they (apologies for the info) hand expressed...and in the end my nipple suffered. By the next day it was evil, cracked sore (which it would have been anyway) and sadly bleeding. I put this cream on religiously for a week ( I still do) but it heals while wet which is ideal because there is no hanging out to dry when loaded with milk especially in the beginning. It doesn't offer instant soothing but it prevents drying and aids healing in the process...I got so bad that I can recommend this as I was having to contemplate giving up breast feeding.

As someone who was planning on Breast Feeding, I ordered this cream in the middle of my pregnancy because of the glowing first hand recommendations it had from breast-feeding mothers.Its been a life-saver. In spite of latching problems which caused some soreness in the beginning, the comfort Lansinoh bought made it possible for me to keep on going. Using it after every feed has made it so comfortable and easy to breastfeed - Had it not been for Lansinoh, I believe the discomfort would have made me switch to formula milk.Oh, and I've been using it on baby's dry ankles and wrists after his baths too - his dry skin has healed so quickly! Even the best oils didn't do that much in 10 days that Lansinoh did in two applications.

I brought this product before I had my second son as I wanted to breastfeed. I had suffered with terribly cracked and sore nipples whilst trying to breastfeed my first son and gave up in the end after a few weeks. This product was an absolute life-saver the second time round. Even though I got sore nipples again, it helped to soothe the skin and not get worse. I breast-fed for longer and believe it was because of this product. I would recommend this to all mothers who want to breastfeed. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star was because the lanolin in the product leaves a grease residue on any clothes it comes into contact with and is hard to shift in the wash, so do not wear your favourite tops when using this.

This has been a lifesaver! I used the ointment after every feed even before my nipples got sore. They seemed fine so I stopped using it for one day. That night feeding my wee boy was quite painful and I felt very tender and looked very pink! Went back to using the ointment after every feed and all's well again! The tube also lasts for ages as my little boy is now 3 weeks old and, other than that 1 day, I have applied the ointment after every feed and still have loads left! Excellent value for money. I would advise every feeding mother to use this from the very first feed. Don't wait for the pain to come, and by using this, you could well avoid it altogether!

I did not buy this to aid comfortable breastfeeding but to aid a very sore mouth. This type of cream was recommended by a Consultant I saw at Guy's Hospital and I chose Lansinoh HPA after reading the comments etc., I have a disease called Oral Lichen Planus and with it comes a sore mouth. Now obviously you can't put any old cream into your mouth in case you poison yourself. As this one is safe for a baby then it will be safe for me. I have noticed an easing of the soreness already - just a few days after purchase and I am pleased I bought this brand.

This is more of a gel than a cream but it's fantastic. It definately helped me to keep breast feeding when I was ready to pack it in and give my son a bottle. My breasts were so incredibly sore from wrong positioning that this really saved the day. I'm so happy I continued as now nearly 2 months on were still going strong. Just make sure you use it after every feed. It is more expensive than some other creams on the market but so worth the extra. I tried avent nipple cream but it didn't help at all. Definately invest in a couple of tubes if your planning on breast feeding.

Very soothing!

Utilizzo questa crema fin dalla nascita di mio figlio.. avevo problemi enormi con ragadi sanguinanti che non mi permettevano di allattare Da quando ho scoperto questo prodotto dopo varie esperienze inutili con altre creme , in pochi giorni ho risolto il problema ed ho allattato fin dopo l'anno del bambino. Ora utilizzo la crema per le mie mani veramente screpolate e per le piccole ferite del bimbo. Aiuta a cicatrizzare senza lasciare segni.
