As a new mom, I've been wondering if Lansinoh Lanolin Nipple Cream 7gm is worth the hype. It's supposed to be great for soothing and protecting sore, cracked nipples, but I've heard mixed reviews. Some friends swear by it, while others say it didn't work for them. I've also seen some scary side effects listed, like allergic reactions and skin infections. How common are these? Should I be worried? And is it really safe for my baby if I don't remove it before feeding? I'm looking for real experiences and advice from moms who've used it. Thanks!
