Try to feed ur baby more often and if u feel that ur breast r not empty drain with pump. Try latching ur baby properly, thsn ur baby can suck properly. Try making ur baby comfortable before feeding,try diffrent position while feeding. Massage ur breast before every feeding session. All this will help u and ur baby.

Rekha.... it's advisable tat keep on breastfeeding to avoid lump.. though ur kid fed up with enough milk it's normal for every mom havng lump sometimes in the first 2-3 months..... ur babe is so small to get all the milk tat ur breast produce for one feed.... it may seems more milk you have at starting tat may lead to lump... however in upcoming days ur babe starts to have the adequate milk tat ur body produces as he grown up... keep on bf and it will get vanished on days go by

Rekha, for cracked nipple apply some oinment after cosulting ur doctor. U can apply oil or boroline,just wipe it off before feeding ur child.

you can apply some hot water before expressing milk. This will help to empty your breast to a level.
