Yes, applying a small amount of olive oil after breastfeeding can help prevent soreness and you don’t need to wash it off before breastfeeding. Like Vaseline, it provides a cheaper alternative, which some mothers prefer. What to look for when choosing a nipple cream My preferred products for stretch marks were Burts Bees Mama Bee, Mamma Mio tummy butter plus Palmers cocoa butter' - brand recommended by Mumsnet user bananaramamaCreams made of organic oils or medical-grade lanolin will almost certainly be fine for both you and your baby. Creams containing petroleum or parabens are safe for skin application, but are not meant to be swallowed so will need washing off before letting your baby latch. Can you use Vaseline as nipple cream?
