because it not only looks awful, but it HURTS when I do it. Does anyone feel the physical pain or do most of us just go numb?

I feel the pain not at the moment I do it. I do afterwards when I am cleaning it or have to look at it and then feel disappointed in myself. But it still hurts less than the inner pain.

When I do cut its the pain I want to feel. So yea I feel the pain.

For me it depends on how anxious/depressed/numb i'm feeling at the time. Sometimes I don't feel it at all while I'm doing it until later that day or the next day.

I feel the physical pain too.

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
