As discussed in yesterday’s Postpartum SUCKS post, I had a HARD time with breastfeeding. My boobs were so engorged I looked like a science fiction pornstar, and my nipples were cracked and bleeding from bad latches. Those first few days the pain almost brought me to my knees. My one saving grace was a fantastic nipple cream called Boob Butter by Boob and Baby. Scroll down for the coupon code!
You’re gonna thank me once you try this Boob Butter. Its all-natural, lanolin free, and baby safe. Using Cupuacu Butter, Calendula Flowers, Mango Butter, EVOO, and Candelila Wax, this nipple cream has a soft ointment type texture that’s easy to rub on and absorbs quickly into your skin. I love it so much I use it as lip balm too!
As a blogger, I receive tons of samples. Nipple cream was no different. I tried over 10 different brands and Boob Butter is by far my favorite. I no longer have the stress of a bad latch or engorgement, but I’m still using Boob Butter to keep my skin soft and happy. You can try Boob Butter using my 10% off coupon “happilyhughes”. Hope you love it as much as I do!
You can find Boob and Baby:
I have hear about this type of product but not this brand. I have actually used Dr. Jart’s and loved it!
Just directed this post to my friend who just had her first baby!
The nipple shield saved me and my nipples. I used it to get through the tough times and couldn’t have made it with out it! Good luck!
I also struggled with breastfeeding. I was able to “stick it out” for 5 months, but once I went back to work full time, I just couldn’t get in the routine of pumping, cleaning the pump, breastfeeding at home, traveling for work…not to mention it was not a pleasant experience. I had the “triple nipple cream” they give you at the hospital – wish I would’ve known about the boob butter!!!
I’ve heard so many good things about this from my friends – I have one girlfriend who gives it at every shower we go to.
Sounds like a really great product. Postpartum really does suck! I totally underestimated that when I had my first little one. Hope its getting better for you!!
Thanks, I’m going to try some!
Thanks for this info for future use
Have a great wekend
I totally feel you… BFing is SO hard! This time’s ben much easier, thank goodness, or I already would have given up.
Oh how I remember those days so well! Only a year ago for me, but we are still beeastfeeding regularly. Now it’s second nature to us both! The toddler stage does come with its own issues though…
Ahh yes, the days of bad latch and cracked nipples! I don’t miss them!! I wish I had seen this when I first started breastfeeding. Someone had given me A lanolin based cream and I hated it!
I don’t have any kids yet, but I’m SO glad that products like this one exist for when I do. I will be pinning this for down the road.

Finding the right cream is essential and nipple cream is so important! I haven’t tried that one but I love my bamboobies one!
