I don't see why not, not necessarily same brand name, some pharmacy have their store brand with same content too.

Yes makes sense to wipe with damp washcloth before application, that's more or less a baby's bottle.

never knew or heard of this when i was nursing my kids, what i was constantly told by grandmas is to keep giving it more and more for the baby to suckle and the sore will heal up by itself, and that was how it usually heal up.

Eeya,
chissom's bossoms hurt.
Pele.


I think you will just need to get used to it.
I heard from wifey it gets worse when baby starts growing teeth.

Sorry sis, babies cannot be told how and what to do at that stage.

no it doesnt get worse wen they start having teeth, d sore actually disappers after a while, only tht they start biting d nipples wen they start having teeths, i never got any sore from biting only from d initial sucking, nd my mum says d sore is normal
