    Awesome!!

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Newborn and I are at the start of our breast feeding journey and still working on latch. I initially tried lanolin but found it messy and sticky, and little one didn't seem to like it. I much prefer these pads - there is a lovely cooling sensation and they prevent rubbing from clothes. The downside is you have to wash before feeding and so you have to plan ahead if little one tends to be expensive. They are also expensive as you can only use them for 24 hours. I have bought a couple of extra packs in the hope that a few days will be all that I nee

    Instant soothing relief

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly didn’t expect such quick relief, but these pads were a lifesaver. The cooling sensation is instant and so soothing, especially in the first days of breastfeeding when everything feels sore and sensitive. They cling well without feeling sticky, and they give this soft, protective cushion that really helped my healing.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used these once after my son decided to bite my nipple and it was extremely sore but I have to say these didn’t really soothe it much, I absolutely felt the soothing feeling and can see how they would soothe sore nipple but I think possibly my soreness was in an area that the pad couldn’t reach. They stick really really well and are very strong and I would highly recommend for cracked or sore nipple because the cooling effect was there and 10/10 for comfort too

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really good for soothing cracked/sore nipples from breastfeeding. These will come in really handy when I breastfeed our next baby. Good value for money. Would buy again

    Great hydrogel pads

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The pads are hydrogel, easy to apply to the sore spot, big enough. They are also reusable, they can be applied up to 24 hours after the first application. Their main advantage is moisturising and soothing injured areas between feedings. The pads have cooling properties and create a kind of protective layer on the breast.

    😲The Relief I Didn't Know I Needed 😲

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I honestly don’t know how I would’ve gotten through the first couple of weeks of breastfeeding without the Medela Hydrogel Pads. My nipples were so sore and cracked from cluster feeding, and every latch felt like fire. I was desperate for some relief, and these little pads were exactly what I needed. The first time I put them on, it was instant cooling relief. Seriously, it felt like my poor skin could finally breathe again. They’re super easy to use you just pop them inside your bra and they stay put. I love that they’re reusable for up to 24 hours.

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very good! I would buy it again for nipple pain, it helped a lot. Especially cold from the fridge was the best. These are a staple in my breast feeding kit now.

    They provide instant stinging relief and cooling s

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a breastfeeding mum, I wanted to share my honest thoughts on the Medela Hydrogel Pads. During my breastfeeding journey, I had several occasions when I was dealing with raw, painful nipples: first weeks, growth spurts, teething, etc and these pads are an absolute lifesaver. Recently with my baby’s first tooth sprouting, I was desperate for anything that would provide relief, and these pads were spot on. The best part? The moment you peel one out of its little wrapper and place it on, you get this incredible, instant cooling sensation. It’s like a soothing balm that takes away the stinging and burning right away. They also create a protective barrier, which is great for keeping your sensitive nipples from rubbing against your clothes or nursing pads. I found they really helped my skin heal faster, too. The only downsides are the price and how they stick. They’re pretty expensive, and since you can only reuse each one for about a day, the cost adds up. They can also be a little too sticky when you peel them off, which is the last thing you want when you’re already sore. But honestly, when the pain is intense, these were worth every single penny for the relief they gave me. If you’re struggling, I highly recommend giving them a try, even if it’s just for a day or two to get through the worst of it.

    Number one for breastfeeding mum’s

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Medela hydrogel pads are absolutely amazing. So easy to use, helps to heal cracked or sore nipples with immediate cooling effect. Good sizing to fit all and definitely worth every penny. Each pad is dermatologically tested, individually wrapped and sterile. Safe to use for every breastfeeding Mum.

    Amazing for nipple pain

    by

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got sent the Medela Hydrogel Pads to try, and I have to say they were such a lifesaver when I was dealing with cracked nipples from my baby’s tongue tie. The relief was almost instant and they really helped the healing process along. Honestly, they’re not cheap, but for me one pack was all I needed for things to heal enough that I didn’t have to buy more, so it is definitely worth the outlay. I also liked that each pad is individually wrapped, which feels nice and hygienic, especially when you’re already sore and sensitive. They’re a really good size to fit most, and can be reused for up to 24 hours, which is handy, though it would be even better if they lasted a little longer – but even so, they did the job brilliantly. If you’re struggling with nipple pain, these are well worth having on hand.
