One of the best things invented for breastfeeding.
The breast shell is slipped onto the nipple of the breast that is not be fed and held in place by the bra. Whilst the baby feeds on the other the milk that leaks is collected in the shell and you could pour this milk into sterlised storage containers for later use.
This is an excellent product because I found that breast pads where not sufficient as the let-down on the non-feeding breast was fast and abundant that the breast pad the bra ended up being soaked. With the breast shell it just pools in the shell without any mess. There has been the odd occasion where it has leaked due to being full or bad placement, else it is fine. The breast shell doesn't make you look like having odd breast because the contours are nicely shaped. I found this product gave me a lot more confidence when breast feeding in public and severely reducing the possibly of wetting my clothes and making a mess as it is already a struggle to get a wriggly baby to feed.

I found the cups very useful for collecting milk that leaks while I extract it from the other breast, there are usually some 5 ml collected, which means my pads won't get soaked and I will have more milk extracted in the end.
The cups with the holes for ventilation are also nice, but I haven't used them much. They would have been very handy in the first 2-3 weeks as then I had extremely sore nipples and they sticked to the cotton or disposable pads.
Only negative point: according to the instructions, the shells shouldn't be used for more than 40 min in a row... because they could press too much on the milk ducts... I would wear them all the time, but like this I hardly use them cause I don't feel like changing every 40 min from pads to shells.

After spending a fortune on dispoable breast pads and having wet clothes with re-usable ones, I opted to try these shells. At home, these are a brilliant option if, like me, you seem to produce vast quantities of milk when nursing on the 'unused' breast. Providing you sterilise these, you can collect and keep the milk for use on other occassions. So much more environmentally friendly than disposable pads, but as they are quite 'bulky', no good for when you are out and about, unless you want funny looks!
