Product reviews of Medela Tender Care Hydrogel Pads
Review: Sweet Relief!
Beauty product: 5 Stars
When I first started nursing in the hospital my nipples got torn up. A few days after we got home from the hospital I started searching for something to give my painful/sore nipples some relief. These pads are AMAZING! Not only did they provide me with much needed relief, but I truely believe they helped my nipples heal faster. They are a bit pricey but I cut mine in half & they lasted even longer! I will be sure to buy these as a shower gift from now on (as long as she plans on BF)! Review: They work pretty well, but there are better ones out there

These gel pads work pretty well. My nipples were really raw and sore and these really helped with the pain when I nursed my baby. But you can only wear each pair for 24 hours. So the package only lasts you two days. Soothies, on the other hand, are reusable for up to 3 weeks and are comparable in cost. I'd recommend those instead. Review: They worked

Without going into explicit detail, I will say they worked for the issue that I needed them for. Review: excellent product
Beauty product: 5 Stars
The Medela Hydrogels are the best that I have tried. I had very sore nipples when I was nursing my daughter. I tried every product and my lactation consultant recommended this product. It is the best and helped me the most. I tried every over the counter product and this is the only one that helped. They are more expensive but totally worth it when you are in pain. Best to keep them in the fridge so they are nice and cool when you put them on. Review: fantastic for bringing relief

These are excellent for bringing cool relief and healing to injured nipples. They are easy to use and can be used for more than a day. They also can be cut into 4 squares to just cover the nipple and therefore make them last longer since they are on the pricey side. The only draw back I found was that if you are leaking considerably then the gel pad can get a bubble texture and breakdown. I found that if you put a nursing pad in your bra and the gel pad in the center that it helps catch the leaks and keeps you soothed at the same time.
Also, make sure to look at your nipple after taking the gel pad off, as little bits of the gel pad can linger and I did not want my baby getting that in his mouth.
