What reward you would chose for yourself for a job well done on breastfeeding?

We know it's not always fun to breastfeed. You deal with sore nipples, clogged ducts, breast pain, etc and sometimes you just need a reward. Here are some quick tips on dealing with sore nipples and breast pain:

  • Moms recommend soothing sore nipples with breastmilk, a warm shower, breast shells, or a nipple cream
  • Keep your nipples dry and let them air dry as often as possible
  • If you continue to experience pain, see a lactation consultant for help improving baby's latch and healing your breasts

I reward myself by going to a second hand store kid free once a month. It's nice to get myself a few new clothes and I feel super refreshed after some me time:)
