I dig it! Wish the temp would last longer!
This product is great! The material is soft; almost feels like bean bag. I haven't used this in the microwave, but I love this in the freezer. I put these bad boys on before I go to bed to reduce the swelling. You'd think this product would freeze your boobs, but doesn't. The only thing I wish is that the coldness from the product lasted longer. I believe this only lasts for about 10 min if that; doesn't matter how long you keep it in the freezer, still 10 min. Overall, I recommend it!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful for Fighting Plugged Ducts
Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2024

I struggled through the early days of nursing with painful, plugged ducts from overproduction. Even with regular pumping/nursing, it easily led to mastitis - sometimes as frequent as bi-weekly. Initially, I attempted to treat it with homemade hot compresses, but the hot water soaked rags left me stuck in one place, constantly needed reheating, were quite messy, and not exactly discrete when you have company. This meant I wasn't doing them as often as I should have.. worsening the problem.

The booby tubes (LOL the name..) allowed me to have all the heat with none of the water/mess. Unlike many other compresses, they are also free of plastic and toxic inserts, which is important to me. Booby tubes are filled with flax seeds, which have natural oils that trap heat when warmed. The "tubes" also allow you to shape the compress as needed, and it fits well within a bra. With a slightly flowy shirt, I've found you can easily use these out and about or with company in the house -- which means you can stay on your regular schedule to fight plugged ducts when they strike.

Two small downsides...
1- When heated, they can sometimes form hot spots. I found just giving them a good shake or quick massage after taking them out of the microwave solved the issue.
2 - These are not washable (again, because they are filled with flax seeds; which is a good thing!), so just be careful you are leaking any milky while using them : ) I found the best "plugged duct fighting routine" was to take a hot shower, nurse/pump, and then use the hot compress between feeds after emptying.

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2015

Great product. Wish I had this when my other 2 children were born. With my second, I ended up having mastitis 2 weeks apart from each other on the same side. After the second time, I gave up nursing and went to bottles. My babies seem to not like that side, they have to nurse harder on that side. So before this baby was born, I was determined not to get that again! I bought 2 sets of these. When you put them in the microwave, be sure not to get them too hot. It didn't seem too hot to the touch, but when I put them on, they were too hot to that sensitive skin. I ended up burning myself. I found that putting a small hot washcloth on first and then put the heated thing on, it works better than if you just put it on dry. I secured it in place with my nursing bra. So whenever I feel really hard spots on my breasts, I get paranoid and get these out. I also used them cold. My 5 yr old son had tonsils surgery and I tried to use the cold ones on him. They wrapped around his neck like a necklace. They would have worked great if he would have kept them on for longer than a second! They were not too cold even after I left them in the freezer for several hours.

4.0 out of 5 stars Helps with let down
Reviewed in the United States on May 8, 2012

Bra size: 40E/40F

I had a plugged duct and have a recurring bleb on my left side. I'm a working mom and pump twice a day at work. I warm them up in the microwave for about 40 seconds and put them in my bra a few minutes prior to pumping. It helps make pumping more efficient. I let down and drain faster. For blebs, it works good too. I heat it up and put it in my bra making sure my nipple is directly on the booby tube. It feels better and helps clear the bleb when I pump DIRECTLY after applying the heat compress.

Pros: Comfortable on the skin, moist heat, compact, natural, fits in bra nicely.
Cons: Doesn't stay hot for very long. If it's placed in your bra directly from the microwave, it'll last a good 5 minutes. It will not sit on your boob while pumping because of the fabric cover. It slides off.

I'm a double pumper. I've got my hands full holding the bottles and massaging my breasts while I pump. I don't use the pumping bra because it doesn't allow me access to massage to help drain completely.

Prior to this, I was using orthomed cold/hot gel pack. The heat lasts longer and because of its plastic packaging, I can rest it on my boob while I pump to maintain the heat compress. Both work great, but the booby tubes are much more discreet and comfortable on the skin.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must-have for breastfeeding mamas!
Reviewed in the United States on February 13, 2012
Verified Purchase
I bought the Earth Mama Angel Baby booby tubes for myself when I had my son, and am very glad I did. I've since given them as gifts to other mamas-to-be. You can either put them in the freezer or pop them in the microwave for 30 seconds. You can also heat them in the oven if you don't have a microwave. As cold packs they were great for engorgement. As heating pads they were great for encouraging let down and soothing clogged ducts. They are super soft and comfy, don't get too hot or too cold, and are the perfect shape. The only negative is that you have to be pretty careful not to get them wet or dirty. You can use them for damp heat and you can gently spot clean them, but they aren't really totally washable. But I love them and definitely couldn't do without them - they still get pretty frequent use six months into breastfeeding.

Excellent produit!! Le tissu est doux et ils s'insèrent bien dans le soutien-gorge contrairement à mes autres compresses. La forme "ouverte" permet de bien s'adapter aux seins et de placer la compresse sur les zones douloureuses. Je recommande à 100%😊

3.0 out of 5 stars Molto fragili, non lavabili

Arrivato senza problemi, ma al secondo utilizzo uno dei due salsicciotti si è già bucato da una parte. Il tessuto della fodera è molto delicato e si rompe facilmente. Metto comunque 3 stelle perché fanno il loro lavoro e hanno la forma ideale per stare nel reggiseno. Consiglio di farsi aiutare da una nonna sarta a rinforzare le cuciture e a fargli una federa su misura. Come altre persone hanno già fatto notare, il fatto che non si possano lavare è un grosso svantaggio, dato che si sporcheranno facilmente di latte materno e lasciarlo depositare non è igienico. Ribadisco: conviene farsi fare delle federe su misura.

le doy 5 estrellas por que realmente sirve, se calienta en menos de 1 minuto en el microondas y sirve para aplicar calor en el pecho. Es ecológico ya que lleva semillas dentro y la tela es de algodón. también se podría congelar, aunque aún no lo he usado congelado, pero serviría. Además, llegó rápido.

Didn't di anything for me. Firstly, it doesn't stay hot for very long. Secondly, it doesn't stay on the boob, kept falling off. Lastly, it barely covers any boob surface. May be more suitable for small breasts.
