Baby Products Reviews of Philips AVENT Comfort Breast Shells
Customer Review: Not what I hoped
Summary: 2 Stars
I ordered these because I had very sore nipples after nursing my daughter. I knew that exposing the nipple to air was supposed to help, so I thought these would work. However, I wasn't able to wear them. The shells are quite large, so unless you have a bra that is at least 2 cup sizes bigger than what you normally wear, they press into your breasts and become uncomfortable in a few minutes. I didn't want to order larger bras, so I couldn't use these. I never used the shells for catching leaked milk, so I can't comment on if that aspect of them.Customer Review: Way too big!
Summary: 1 Stars
I purchased these in an attempt to find some relief for my sore nipples during the first few weeks of breastfeeding, however, I never used them because they were too big to fit in my bra and they made me look like I had huge tumors on the end of my breasts so there is no way I would wear them in public. Also, the instructions say that you can only wear them for 40 minutes at a time because they can reduce your milk supply--not something you want to be doing during the first weeks when you're trying to get your milk supply up.Customer Review: Clothing Saver

I used these breast shells years ago when I had my daughter. Before I bought them, I drenched every outfit both of us wore at each feeding. My 'opposite' breast leaked right through all the breast pads and all over our clothes. The breast cup proved to be a lifesaver. It collected all that milk that came from the other breast and because I sterilized the breast cups, I was able to save the milk for a later feeding by Daddy. I am expecting again and just purchased this set. It was a 'must have'.Customer Review: Awesome!!!

This is one of the best breastfeeding products I have ever tried. Especially usefull for the first few weeks. They keep clothing off of sensitive nipples, which makes things much more comfortable. They also allowed me to collect several ounces of breastmilk at each feeding to freeze for later. that liquid gold would have gone to waste otherwise!! I have told all of my pregnant friends to get them and will be recommending them to everyone who will listen. more than worth the money!Customer Review: These work okay...
Summary: 4 Stars
These worked all right for me. I bought these to collect milk as an alternative to using a bottle when I fed my son at night. I cannot use these on my one side because I leak more on that side and the shells would be too full and milk would start to overflow. Then, when I would go to take it out of my bra milk would spill out since they were so full. Also, If you don't sit up straight they will also leak milk. So, I have now gone back to using a bottle to collect excess milk.
