I couldn't be happier with this product. Aside from using cold cabbage for engorgement, that remedy did very little for sores that developed from the challenges I faced breastfeeding. With my second daughter I literally had tears in my eyes for weeks due to aggressive feeding and improper latching. When my daughter sprouted teeth and bit through my skin, this product was the only thing that gave me comfort! She's a year old and I STILL love this product. It got a lot of use in the early weeks after her birth, and are still wonderful after a year and experiencing the occasional nipple…

I recommend this product to all new breastfeeding moms. Everyone goes through a little nipple discomfort when they first begin breastfeeding, and often I hear mothers say that is why they quit. Well this is the answer to your problems. I was introduced to this product by my lactation consultant and I was amazed at how awesome they worked. They are such soothing reliefe when you have irritated, sore nipples. They provide a great barrier to stop your irritated nipples from rubbing against your bra and only causing more irritation. — My only…

impressed with this product, value conscious, looking for durability
I hadn't heard of this product at all until I had my second child and they offered them to me in the hospital. I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly they relieved the pain I was experiencing and the cooling sensation wasn't overwhelming like an ice pack can be. I really loved that they stayed in place even as I did things around the house with my older child. They are easy to clean and reuse also which saves alittle on how often you need to purchase them. I would rinse mine under warm water and put it in the fridge to cool, I did that about 6 times before opening another pack. They were…

Cloth diapering mom!, impressed with this product, Thrifty, loving this product
I got these as a gift from another breastfeeding mom. I know they say that your nipples shouldn't be sore if the baby's latch is correct, but my skin got very raw. These Soothies Gel Pads were simply a lifesaver for me. I didn't keep them in the fridge at all and they still felt cool when I put them on. I wore each pair for 3 days straight. I wasn't leaking much at that point, so I was able to wear them for that long. I would recommend them to anyone! Wonderful…

If you have a child that makes breastfeeding challenging, dont despair. Soothie's really help relieve the pain and discomfort. They are pricey but a real lifesaver when you are desperate for a solution!!!!!! I was about to give up and found them my only savior. A breastfeeding counselor told me about them. THANK GOD because I did not see them publicized anywhere. They are a great little secret product. —…

When I had my second daughter I thought I might not be able to breastfeed her. I had Mastitis twice and she was biting all of the time, but these saved me. They cool on contact even without keeping them in the refrigerator. I do not know what I would have done with out them. I have stocked up for friends who are having babies and for when I have another. A must have for any nursing…

I would reccomend them to anyone.…

I don't understand why this is under 'maternity items'. They need a breastfeeding category. To me this product is an absolute necessity for new nursing…
