Any suggestions??

i'm not BFing, but did you maybe try some ice? Or does that hinder milk production? I'm sorry, i have no idea.
i had the same feeling when i had my reduction and ice helped.

No water. Put a tad of olive oil on your nipples before you pump or after you nurse. You will feel like a new women.

Lanosol after every feed and let them air out. I was literally walking around the house topless for a while! About ten days after birth mine stopped hurting and it was right after a pumped once or twice.
I also was told to actually rub the breast milk onn them and tried this too..not sure if it helped but it is worth a try!
