Comfort Breast Shell Set, 2 Pack, SCF157/02

These are nice to put in while I am feeding on the opposite side. I initially used a hakaa and had a terrible experience with it. I also ended up need them when my daughter started rearing her head back during feeding which resulted in painful chafing that these helped relieve. The silicone backing does get a bit "sticky" so it can be uncomfortable to reposition if your nipples are very sore or sensitive. They allow a good amount of air circulation. It's nice to have the option for vented and closed, the vented will 100% leak if you lean over while wearing them so the closed are my go to if I'm leaving the house. I wear them under a nursing bra and you can barely tell they're there, I'm a 38B/C. I did fall asleep in them once, I am very careful not to do it again. They restricted blood flow and my nipple and areola were stark white and super tender for the next few days. That however, was definitely user error!

I've had sore nipples and excessive letdown leaking from the minute baby was born, it seems like, and these have been so helpful in dealing with both of those issues. I agree with everyone else: you CANNOT possibly wear these out of the house and hope no one will notice, but for around the house, they're great at what they do! I will second the opinion, too, that these should not be worn for more than 45 mins to an hour, because they do put uncomfortable pressure on the breast, and I did develop a minor plugged duct after forgetting and leaving the vented ones on for a 3 hour nap. While I was able to easily clear the plug, it's easy to avoid if you just remove these within an hour. I'm a 36DD with, apparently, longer nipples, and these work great for me. My nipples get a chance to breathe and heal, and I'm able to save letdown milk! PLEASE NOTE though that since buying these, I also recently switched to wool reusable breast pads (LANAcare, Ekstra style, Medium size overnight and Small size for the day) instead of using the cotton reusable or disposable breast pads I had been using, and I really noticed a HUGE difference in my nipples once I switched to wool. The wool pads contain lanolin, so they soothe the nipple, and because they're not holding the moisture in with plastic (and because wool wicks away moisture so well) it's incredibly healing for the nipples.Using both wool pads AND these breast shells have almost completely cleared up my nipple soreness issue. If you're struggling with clothing or pads feeling painful on your nipples, it's really worth the investment to try the LANAcare wool pads. Plus, the wool is antibacterial, so you only need to wash them every 2-3 weeks! Amazing!

I thought these were amazing for trying to heal due to a shallow latching baby. I missed the part in the instructions that say not to wear longer than 40 minutes because longer use can lead to clogged ducts. I was starting to feel like I could possibly because getting the early signs of a clogged duct after wearing these continuously for about a day and that’s when I discovered there’s a time limit. I immediately stopped wearing them and everything went back to normal. This wasn’t something I saw upfront so I thought it’d be helpful to share because a lot of comments were talking about wearing them all day and night.

These are great for catching milk from one breast while you're nursing your baby with the other. We saved a lot of milk that way. However, if you're planning to wear them all day, you can't bend over at the waist, or your shirt is going to be soaked! I've done this many times. (Try bending at the knee instead). For this product, it is all about having the right expectations for how you plan to use it. I would NOT recommend these for the following uses: 1. All day/to work/in public (they have too big of a profile under your bra--I look like Madonna so I don't wear them in public) 2. At night (they leak if you leak too much and your nipples need a rest from being pressed up against the plastic) I WOULD recommend them for: 1. Catching milk when you're nursing at home. They were especially useful right after my son was born and I wasn't leaving the house that much anyway. This was also the period of time where I was most likely to leak, so these worked out great! I use my Medela softshells at night.

These do save mik and allow your nipples to breathe, but there are things to consider before trying... If you have short nipples you should be aware of the following: - The back piece has a hole that is not flush with the breast. It is about 1/3 inch from the base of the nipple at the areola, so if you have nipples that are short, the milk won't make it into the cup and instead catches between the silicone back and your breast. If that gap fills up then the milk will go into the cup. MESSY to remove at that point. - You have to wear a nursing pad over the bottom of these for the reason listed above, or wear a soggy shirt. If you have large breasts you should be aware of the following: - These are not shallow, they stick out almost an entire inch. I am a 38DDD and these things made me look like I had GIANT mounds for nipples. - These will really press into your breasts and may get uncomfortable for anything over 10 minutes. For all gals with any sized breasts, know this: - You can only wear them 40 minutes at a time, according to the insert, because they put undue pressure on the base of your milk ducts. - When I rest one of these shells in my hand it is bigger than my palm, be aware that these are not small or discrete; you would probably only want to use these at home or if you didn't care if people think you possess giant, puffy nipples. - An hour after I used these my left breast had sharp pains, I PRAY it isn't an indicator of a blocked duct. FYI: I had no pains before using these. I gave 3 stars because they do what they say, just not very comfortably. But if you have perky & petite breasts with long nipples, these may work really well for you.

El producto es bueno, almacena muy bien la leche asi que no mojaras tu ropa y te proteje de lastimarte con la ropa el pezon, pero es muy rigido y no es tan comodo de llevar, solo lo recomiendo para estar en tu casa por la copita es pequeña y te deforma el busto

I actually bought it after reading tones of reviews. But trust me the product is not worth buying. One can’t be glued to this all the time when breast feeding. I have silicone Breast pump and manual breast pump which serve entire purpose. This is really not the best item to buy for milk saving.

I have received just one cup , there is no return policy

This product came in super handy during the overnight period with my newborn, since he would normally sleep 3-4 hours uninterrupted. Instead of waking up with a wet shirt and sheets due to leaking, this has caught all that letdown and allowed me to use the milk in his bath instead! Plus, it’s really comfortable to wear so you actually forget you’ve been wearing them.

Muy útil en la lactancia
