Medela Soothing Hydrogel Pads

For cracked, sore nipples
4.511,377 ratings on Amazon

When nursing pads alone are not enough because your skin is actually cracked, these gel pads create a moist environment meant to help that skin heal between feeds while cooling the soreness. They double as a barrier against bra friction, so getting dressed does not add to the discomfort.
