If breastfeeding hurts, then Kamillosan is not going to help. There are *no* clinical studies to say it does. Breastfeeding shouldn't hurt and if it does, then you may need expert help from a trained breastfeeding expert - probably not your midwife or health visitor unless they have a particular interest in this (their training does not cover breastfeeding in depth). The main breastfeeding charities are: The ABM, the BfN, LLL and NCT. Take your pick - they all have helplines and websites. Search Google for more info.
Creams, potions and lotions are merely another way to make you part with your hard-earned cash. Much better to keep the money in your pocket (or spend it on chocolate) and call one of the breastfeeding charities. Support and information is offered for free. Now that's what I call a good deal!
