doesn't everyone need these?, September 4, 2007

Unless you have a body made perfect for nursing and never get sore nipples, you need these or a product like it. You have to get the absorbent pads to put in them though or empty them regularly, if they have free milk in them it sloshes around and you can't bend over or anything because it leaks out the vents holes int he top. But i don't know of any product that serves the same purpose and doesn't do this.

I wish I could give it negative stars!, October 28, 2011

This review is from: Ameda Breast Shells (Baby Product)

I've been pumping for six months and have only once gotten a blocked duct. It was annoying but quickly emptied. After only 45 minutes of wearing one of these shells to protect a cracked nipple, five of my ducts were blocked! By that evening I was able to empty four of them, but one stayed blocked and by the next morning it had turned into mastitis. It was awful. I threw these away as soon as I healed up. Do not use these!!!
