So my baby is a week old today (!) and we're doing relatively well breastfeeding..some latch issues, though. My right nipple is super sore I think because she continues to eat when I have little cuts (I think). There are little blood spots that appear after she eats..but anyway.

How do I know the difference between a cracked nipple and the normal "cracks" or lines on a nipple? You can usually find just about anything on Google, and I am not finding any photos

I have a visiting nurse coming on Oct 15 (earliest they could fit me in) and I can't afford to go to the hospital to meet with a LC (it's $180..insurance doesn't cover). So I'm using the internet in the meantime!
