The excess hormones that he got from your body during pregnancy can cause his nipples to be sore, irritated, and even produce milk. They should go back to normal soon.

it's probably just chafing because of his clothes, he's been naked for 9 months and that oh-so-soft baby skin can't handle anything rubbing on it. My son's skin would get so irritated around his neck where the collar rubbed. and since nipples stick out a little they're a prime target for irritation. Just make sure your washing his clothes in baby detergent with no fabric softener. And try not to get soap on the irritated areas when you give him a bath, or let him soak in soapy water because soap is very drying and will make it worse. hope this helps, god bless.

Nope. If he seems uncomfortable, then address the situation then, but if you're just seeing some redness or puffiness, leave it alone.
