A member asked:
Im 33 weeks pregnant and both my nipples are in a lot of pain it feels like there burning or being sliced off is this normal?

Yes: Unfortunately, this is a side effect of pregnancy. The effects of the hormones on your nipples is causing this. Sometimes it can feel, if you barely touch them, that they are burning or being poked with hot flames or stabbed with a knife. Lovely, right? It can come and go. You can try a cold compress or tylenol (acetaminophen). Sorry about that. Pregnancy is hard on the body, right?
