I had the same issue when my DS was about 3 months. Switching sides helped and I went through loads of tubes of lanolin! Good luck, you'll get through it 
Hi Rosie,
Sore nipples in the early days of breastfeeding are quite common, and often can be helped by changing the way your baby latches on. Have a look at this page on our website - hope it helps! nct.org.uk/parenting/breast...
