I wore these non-stop in the beginning when my sore nipples could not bear touching anything. Make sure you have a bra big enough to accommodate them though, or you may get clogged ducts. (Mar 14, 2016)

Used before giving birth for about two months to help inverted nipples. Aug 22, 2020
Do not recommend for inverted nipples. Painful to wear for long periods of time and caused a lot more irritation than without them. Jul 22, 2020

Best invention ever for sore nipples! They keep your shirt/bra from touching and make those first few days/weeks bearable. Can do nipple cream under and heal sore nipples much faster. Great gift! Apr 03, 2020

These were SO helpful at the beginning when my nipples were sore and I didn't want them to touch fabric! I could put them on, but still wear a shirt normally. Mar 31, 2020

these were given to me in the hospital and they are a life saver. this product also catches your milk which is great but not so great when bending over and your milk spilled Mar 23, 2020

I had very sore nips and I felt they were getting irritated all day being smooshed in my bra and under clothes. I thought this would help but it irritated them even more. Maybe they were too small. Aug 09, 2019

I didn’t love these. The space to put your nipple in would be pushed to hard with my bra and always ended up hurting me more than helping. Jun 27, 2019

Milkflow Lactation Cookies

Why weeLove Milkflow Lactation Cookies:
In case you need a valid excuse to eat cookies, here’s a really good one: boosting milk supply. Nursing moms need to fuel their bodies to keep up with the demands of milk production and new parenthood. (If you’ve been wearing the same pants for three days—we get it, girl!) While lactation teas, capsules and powders aren’t for everybody, cookies most certainly are.
Milkflow™ from UpSpring created the first ever lactation cookies made with the dream team of ingredients: Fenugreek and Blessed Thistle. These two essentials work together to help naturally promote breast milk supply in those early days, during your baby’s growth spurts (when you’re glued to the glider for feedings!), and pumping sessions.
Available in Oatmeal Raisin and Double Chocolate Chip, cookies are non-GMO and made in the USA with all natural ingredients. These tasty treats come in packs of two—perfect for tossing in your diaper bag for a healthy snack on the go. Each box comes with 10 packs (20 cookies total), so you’ll be able to keep your milk production going strong while keeping “Hangry Mom Running Errands” at bay. It’s a win-win.

Used these for about the first 3 months of breastfeeding. These were amazing for sore nipples that you didnt want touching anything. I consider this a MUST HAVE May 04, 2019
- Adrian T.

I wore these when I first started BF when my nipples were very chapped. They were a savior as they protected then from rubbing on my clothes. Jul 19, 2018
- Kaitlin A.

These were good in the beginning when I was so sore, I couldn't wear shirts or bras. But they would leak constantly and kind of hurt (my nipples are on the larger side). Jun 18, 2018
- Molly L.

I had horribly cracked nipples early on. The lactation consultant gave me these and it really helped them to heal and capture any extra milk! Feb 23, 2018

I have larger breasts and these sat on them quite awkwardly. Dec 23, 2017
- Kara G.

I found these shells helpful not just for leaking milk, but also for tender breasts as it kept any material from being directly against the nipple area. Nov 06, 2017
- Natalie N.

These are fantastic! They help protect sore sensitive nipples and catching milk that leaks. Just don't bend over or the milk will come pouring out! Oct 13, 2017
- Marianne G.

These work so well! I still use now. Even though I had my mastectomy, I use this to even out my chest since my prosthesis doesn't fit in my nursing bra. Really helps with leaking! Oct 05, 2017
- Kobie S.
Decatur , Indiana
Tried these once and they went back into the back and into the closet. Hurts when worn in bra and the pressure builds up around your nipple. Felt as if I was leaking more when worn. Aug 11, 2017

Collect milk and give nipples some air and time to heal too! Jun 15, 2017
- Julie K.

Biggest lifesaver during those early months. I literally wore these nonstop for 3 months, my nipples were so sensitive & sore! Bought 2 pairs so I could always be wearing one while washing the other. Mar 09, 2017
- Shay O.

These were recommended to me by the hospital to help "evert" my nipples but I ended up loving them just as milk catchers during heavy letdowns. Dec 29, 2016

I only ended up using it for a few days in the beginning because it didn't really help bring out my nipples like it promised and it was a pain to clean. Dec 13, 2016

Softer then other similar products. Perfect size. Helped save a bunch of milk from being wasted in my breast pads. Dec 02, 2016

These are great if you have nipple damage from nursing because they prevent touching/rubbing. They're also good for thrush because they allow for airflow. Jul 11, 2016

LIFESAVER! (or Nipple Saver.) When my nipples were extremely sore and scabbing these helped them heal and helped keep my nips away from my bra/shirt. Haven't needed them after but that's a good thing Oct 28, 2014
