My Experience with Moms co nipple butter
I’m using the nipple butter religiously for 1 month. The butter gets absorbed onto the skin easily and doesn’t feel oily and sticky. It moisturizes dry and cracked nipple effectively. When I started using the product, I had immense pain due to sore and cracked nipples. After using it regularly for 10 to 12 days, I don’t feel any pain at all.
My baby still has shallow latch but I’m able to breastfeed without any sharp pain as my nipples are softened and not cracked. But when I miss to use it for a day or two, I can sense the pain. So, moisturizing regularly with the butter is key here. I apply the butter onto the nipples after every feed and wipe it off before feeding.
This nipple butter is a multipurpose product as claimed by the brand. It can be used as a lip balm, as body butter for dry areas like knees and elbows.
