Ameda DuoShell™ BreastShells

These shells saved my nipples during those first brutal weeks of nursing. The hard outer dome keeps fabric from rubbing against sore skin, and the little holes let air circulate so things actually heal. I wore them between feeds for a few days and the relief was immediate.

I was skeptical about anything helping with flat nipples, but these shells gently coaxed things out within a week of daily wear. The domed shape sits discreetly under a nursing bra and truly keeps fabric from rubbing against that tender area. So glad I gave them a shot.

The little holes on the shell keep air flowing, so my skin doesn't get clammy even after hours under a tight nursing bra. I pop them in whenever I'm around the house and forget they're on, which is the highest praise I can give.
