SILVERETTE® The Original Silver Nursing Cups, Nipple Covers for Breastfeeding Essentials, Pure 925 Silver Nipple Shields for Breastfeeding Newborn, Lightweight Nursing Cups, XL Size

I cannot sing the praises of these enough. For my first baby I exclusively pumped and did not use silverettes. My nipples were red, cracked, and incredibly sore. I would shudder every time I put clothes on or the water from the shower touched them. This time around I am breastfeeding my second baby and using silverettes 100% of the time I’m not nursing. They have legitimately saved my nipples. They aren’t sore, cracked or red at all. They are a breeze to clean and can be cleaned by just rinsing under warm water. The design keeps nipples protected from chafing or bumping into clothing, while also healing them through the silver. I was worried about them being indiscreet, but when used under a padded bra, or a bra with nursing pads, you really can’t even notice them there. I opted for the XL size, and I don’t even feel like I have exceptionally large breasts, but I was glad I did so, they are the right size for sure. Overall, I think this is a must have for anyone nursing / pumping. It should be a registry staple, and if your friends don’t have it on their list, I suggest getting it for them anyway. Love this product and so thankful for it!!

I bought 2 other knock offs before I finally splurged and bought these original silverettes, and there is a definite difference. These are better quality and work better to soothe and heal nipples than the knock off brands. My only regret is not getting the one with the silicone o-ring! It is much more comfortable with an o-ring. Just spend the extra money and buy these the first time around! It’s worth it!

I was very skeptical before purchasing these but with a newborn working on developing his latch and my nipples getting torn up in the process, I was desperate. I think the thing that makes these work so well is that they essentially create a breastmilk bath for your nipples which helps them heal so much faster. It’s also really nice that they protect your nipples from fabrics so you don’t have to feel that horrible sensitivity all the time. I highly recommend these for anyone suffering!! I swear they start helping within a matter of hours.

These are AMAZING for breastfeeding moms! I have been wearing these for 6 weeks nonstop since my milk came in and they are worth every penny. The only times I take them off are when breastfeeding, pumping, or showering- after that I rub a little breast milk around in the nipple, let it dry, then pop these back on. When breastfeeding, the nipples can be very sore- even my arm brushing across them in the shower hurts- but once my silverettes are on I feel nothing. I have eczema so I was very nervous about the possibility of cracked, bleeding nipples since my skin already has issues without a baby feeding off them, but with my silverettes the only issue I've had was soreness due to an improper latch.After reading the sizing guide, I purchased the XL as that's where my measurements fell and they just cover my whole areola.A few things to note:1) I always wear them with a bra as they will pop off eventually without anything holding them on- they're not really suctioned on. 2) wear these with large nursing pads. Since milk collects in the silverettes before eventually spilling out, small nursing pads don't really have the surface area to contain the spill. 3)they do show through thin nursing bras (like ones meant for sleep and others that don't have more structured padding) but so do nursing pads. I've found that for me the best way to combat lumpy looking boobs is to either wear a more structured nursing bra with thicker padding or to simply add a bra pad ( the kind that are often removable in bras) in between the bra and the nursing pad and/or silverettes. 4) they're very thin and lightweight, but durable. I've dropped mine many times on my hard tile bathroom floor and still, no dents!I think ALL nursing moms should have these and they are worth more than their weight in silver! HIGHLY recommend!!UPDATE after 2nd child:Wore them occasionally with the 2nd breastfeeding child. I must be more calloused this time around because I didn't wear them constantly. Still found them useful when my nipples were sore due to improper latch. There are now a few dents from dropping them, but they still work fine. My conclusions: they're hands down essential for first time mom's. 2nd time mom's don't need them unless they want them for the occasional soreness or didn't breastfeed the first time. Those are my thoughts!

These nipple shields were a lifesaver at the start of my breastfeeding journey. They helped relieve pain from clothing friction and general nipples soreness. Using them fresh out of the fridge was 10/10. Highly recommend for anyone struggling with soreness early on!

I bought these for a new mom. Although I wish they were cheaper, the new mom is very satisfied with them and finds them very helpful.

Helped in some ways but the edges pressed into skin and caused their own blisters

I wanted to dislike them (I mean is 80 bucks), but I just can’t—they’ve saved me so much, especially during cluster feeding. Do they tarnish? Yes, since they’re 100% silver, but only if you don’t care for them properly. The good news is it’s an easy fix: just rub them with dry baking soda for about 15 seconds each, (then of course rinse them with water) and they’re as good as new. I simply LOVE my Silverettes!
