I just had my breakfast and noticed that my right boob had made an escape for freedom from my nightie- and my nipple was crusty! Before this I could squuze the milk out but now I must have started leaking! Do any of you have to wear breast pads??? xxx

mmm nice. I have noticed a tiny amount of crustiness.. but I am not leaking nor am able to get anything out if I squeeze. This is my first and they say you may not start lactating til the baby is actually born with First timers.

ive not had a drop ! but ive had like a bit of crusty stuff only where the hole wud be and thats it !

sry no help there

I haven't had anything with mine yet, take care XX

I've been suffering from crusty nips for a while now And occasionally I'll drip drip drip a little. But it hasn't got back enough to need pads yet thankfully!

I havent had a thing yet but i do have dry skin round my aerola xxx

I've had this and just solved the problem!
Sit with wet flannels on your nips often.
Since I've been doing this the crustiness hasn't happened and the only way to get it off before was to pick it off as washign wasnt shifting them, but leaving them wet it just draws it out.

I have slightly "crunchy" only if I look close when I am in the shower... nothing water does not take off..

Yup I get that haha

I have to wear them at night as I lie on them and they leak for a good 6 weeks now and they leak after shower as they are warm

I wear breast pads at night if they are crusty you can vasline them and them put them in your bra
