A member asked:
What should i do to get nipple stimulation after breast feeding?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Gentle: Simple gentle massage will do for half the length of a normal breastfeeding, no need to make yourself sore, make sure your hands have a lotion with some lanolin to avoid irritation of the skin. Gentle rubbing or rolling the nipple and areola with your hand works, or simply use a breast pump to mimic the baby suckling
