Caroline Albuquerque drew attention on social media by sharing the traumatic experience she had while breastfeeding her one month old daughter.
Recently, employee Caroline Albuquerque, 26, went viral on social media after she revealed in a video that part of her nipple had fallen off while breastfeeding her one-month-old daughter. It didn’t take long for the publication, with over five million views on TikTok, to bring together other Internet users who had experienced similar stories.
“My [mamilo] was left in abeyance. It’s an unbearable pain, I cried a lot. That’s why I don’t romanticize breastfeeding, that part that nobody matters. Happy birthday to you “, commented one of the users in the post.

In her profile, Caroline explained that both her left and right nipples were injured during the first few days of breastfeeding. However, she decided to continue breastfeeding despite the presence of fissures, bleeding and the loss of some of the tissues.
“People told me it was normal. Stories like: ‘Mine [mamilo] was bleeding and I continued to breastfeed, this is normal. ‘ So when my beak fell off, I thought it was just one of the common things that happened. “
Later, Caroline said in a comment that she started the skin healing process with the help of ointments, but that she also tried to correct her baby’s hairline to avoid the problem again.
Pay attention to the position of mother and baby!
Is breastfeeding always synonymous with pain, cracks and bleeding? Even if the answer is no, it is common to come across comments that (unduly) normalize discomfort while breastfeeding.
According to the Brazilian Society of Pediatrics on its official website, situations involving bleeding, pain and the appearance of cracks during breastfeeding can be common if the hold and position of the baby are not adequate during breastfeeding.
At each indication of the occurrence or the appearance of symptoms, the mother is recommended to contact a health care professional as soon as possible, in order to correct the baby’s movements.
” The correct grip covers the nipple and as much as possible the areola. The baby’s mouth should be wide open, lower lip facing down and upper lip facing up (a fish mouth). In addition to the fact that the mother is relaxed, she is comfortable with her and the baby is calm, with his face and body close to his belly “, leads the institute.
