If you have cracked nipples or fissures you need these. Now.,

This review is from: Medela Tender CareTM Hydrogel Pads - Medela 87123 (Misc.)
Why is breastfeeding such a mystery? You'd think we'd have figured this stuff out by now. I have a marathon nurser with my second baby. She is a round-the-clock boob-a-holic and my nipples became raw like hamburger. I got loads of bad advice. Everything from limiting nursing (bad advice for my milk supply and baby's weight) to diagnosis with thrush (it wasn't thrush). I had fissures in my nipples. I know. It sounds bad because it is bad. These are deep cracks and a kind of scabbing over them. When the scabs got dried out between feedings, the next time the baby would latch on, she would painfully rip them off. It was eye-watering. I found these gel-pads at Target and when I applied Lansinoh and then these pads over it and kept them in place between feedings, the cracks and fissures began to heal. Thank goodness because I was really starting to question whether I could breastfeed while in that much pain. So if you have scabs and major pain, try these with the Lansinoh for a day or two. I am sure things will improve. Hang in there, mom.

They work pretty well, but there are better ones out there,

These gel pads work pretty well. My nipples were really raw and sore and these really helped with the pain when I nursed my baby. But you can only wear each pair for 24 hours. So the package only lasts you two days. Soothies, on the other hand, are reusable for up to 3 weeks and are comparable in cost. I'd recommend those instead.

Great short-term solution,

These are a great short-term solution for tenderness caused by nursing or pumping. These are not ones that you can wear for a week like you might get from a health card provider but they feel great when you first put them on. They really helped minimize my discomfort. I would recommend these to other nursing or pumping mothers.
