I would try the lansinoh ointment on the nipples. It's good to have some on hand anyway because you will likely need it if you are going to breastfeed. Cocoa butter on the rest of the breast should help the itching.

that's really weird, but I'm almost 5 months and my nipples are so dry and itchy. Maybe it's just pregnancy.

Mine did it at 3 1/2 months. I put cocoa butter on them and it stopped.

Yes...this is normal. I actually used lotion for a while, but it did not help, especially in cold weather, so I use lip medex, or Blistex. I know funny...but same type of skin as lips...so it works!!!

You can get nipple creams from the drug store. I had this really good stuff.. cant remember the name .. it was Lanilen or something along those lines. Good Luck.. ask your doctor.. Hope it helps!

It is very normal. Not everyone does but some do. There are special creams you can buy but I found just regular lotion was fine.
