Product Information
Full details
The Chicco Natural Feeling Breast Shells are designed for nursing mothers who need a discreet way to protect sensitive nipples from friction and collect excess breast milk between feedings. These soft silicone shells contour comfortably to the breast, offering relief and practicality for daily use; however, they are intended for collection rather than long-term storage, meaning milk must be discarded if not consumed immediately.

Troubleshooting

Milk leaking from the ventilation holes
Avoid leaning forward or moving quickly when the shells are nearly full; empty the contents periodically.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: ensure the silicone edges are clean and dry before placement. They are compatible with most standard nursing bras that provide enough room for the shell profile. For hygiene, wash the breast shells with warm, soapy water after every use. Sterilize the shells regularly in a steam sterilizer or by boiling them for a short duration to ensure they remain safe for daily contact with sensitive skin. Always dry them thoroughly before storage to prevent bacterial growth.
