I cannot sing the praises of these enough. For my first baby I exclusively pumped and did not use silvermae cups. 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 silvermae 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 large 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!!

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 silvermaes 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 silvermaes the only issue I've had was soreness due to an improper latch.
After reading the sizing guide, I purchased the large 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 silvermaes 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 silvermaes. 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!!

I don’t know what kind of magic these are infused with but they work great! I have been wearing them religiously any time I am not nursing and I am sure they have made such a difference in my healing. I am only ten days postpartum and I don’t have any cracking or bleeding anymore. I ordered them on the way home from the hospital and they couldn’t have come at a better time. I was so sore and felt so overwhelmed and the relief was immediate. I wear them under my nursing pads and when my baby is ready to nurse I take them off, wipe them with a burp cloth and set aside until we are done. I wouldn’t wear them out but I don’t foresee needing them much past the first two months or so anyways but I bet they will come in handy when he starts teething. I would definitely gift these or recommend them to other new moms!

I’ve been wearing theses since I got them <24 hours ago and am already having significant relief despite the fact I am still nursing and pumping just as often. Definitely worth the seemingly high cost.

I hesitated to get these bc of the price. But so glad I did, they literally saved my nipples and breastfeeding journey! I wore for 3 weeks straight bc I was traumatized from my first baby when my nips were literally shredding and bloody but with these, they never got like that. I just rinsed them in the shower. They did leave an indentation, but again I wore mine alllll day and slept with them. But I would take that minor discomfort over tore nips any day.
Really wish I would’ve had these for my first pregnancy.
You need them!!!
