HOW TO USE: Simply place Silverette® over your nipples, using your bra or nursing singlet to hold them in place. Wear them for a couple of hours at a time, in between feeding/pumping sessions.
We highly recommend taking a break from wearing Silverette® for a few hours each day/as needed, and letting your nipples air dry, particularly if you leak a lot. While a moist environment is conducive to healing and helps prevents cracks and cuts, excess moisture can irritate the nipples and surrounding skin and potentially delay nipple healing. Monitor the nipples and surrounding skin daily. If you have any concerns, please reach out to your Midwife, Doctor or a Lactation Consultant.
CHOOSING YOUR SIZE: To accommodate your growing bust as your pregnancy progresses and during milk production, add one cup size to your current bra size.
Original size – Adjusted bra size is C cup or less and areola measurement is less than 4.5cm
XL size – Adjusted bra size is D cup or more and/orareola measurement is 4.5cm or more
If your measurements are on the cusp, or you’re still unsure, choose XL. Purely from a comfort perspective, it is better to have them slightly bigger than slightly smaller.
If they are a gift, choose XL - it is the best 'one-size-fits-most'.

Reviews from Website:
"We were a bit skeptical at first but decided to give these a go on a friend's recommendation and couldn't be happier. I haven't had any cracking or dryness at all and haven't used any creams, lanolin or other products.
Definitely recommended." Lilian
"I struggled for almost 5 weeks with incredibly sore nipples during and between breastfeeds, I caved and purchased Silverettes and once I used them, I wish I had them from the start! They saved my breastfeeding journey." Lana
"Saved my breastfeeding. I had bleeding nipples after poor latch and using these silver cups helped heal and keep nursing. I stopped using any other balms and creams." Daria
