Silver nursing cups, also known as breast shells or breast cups, are used by nursing mothers to address various breastfeeding issues. Here are some of their functions and benefits:
Nipple protection: Silver nursing cups are designed to shield and protect sore or cracked nipples. They create a barrier between the nipple and clothing, preventing friction and irritation, allowing the nipples to heal.
Collecting breast milk: Nursing cups can also collect breast milk that may leak from the non-nursing breast during breastfeeding or between feedings. This milk can be saved for later use or added to stored breast milk.
Aid in inverted or flat nipples: In some cases, women may have inverted or flat nipples, which can make it challenging for the baby to latch properly. Silver nursing cups can help draw out the nipple, making it easier for the baby to grasp during feeding.
Aid in engorgement: Breast engorgement occurs when the breasts become overly full and firm due to an increase in milk production. Silver nursing cups can provide relief by applying gentle pressure and reducing swelling, making it more comfortable for the mother to nurse or pump milk.
Ventilation and moisture control: Some nursing cups have ventilation holes to allow air circulation and prevent moisture build-up, which can contribute to nipple soreness or fungal infections like thrush.
It's worth noting that while silver nursing cups have been used historically, nowadays, there are various types and materials available, including silicone or plastic, which serve similar purposes. It's essential to consult with a healthcare professional or lactation consultant to determine if nursing cups are suitable for your specific situation and to receive proper guidance on their usage.
