Using the Comfort Breast Shells
Warning: Wash your hands thoroughly with soap
and water before you touch non-ventilated breast
shells and backing cushions to prevent contamination.
To protect sore or cracked nipples and to relieve
engorgement: Attach the backing cushions to the ventilated
shells and slip them inside your bra. The ventilation holes
in the breast shells must point upwards. The soft cushions
will mold comfortably to the shape of your breasts and
the domed shells will protect your sore or cracked nipples
from chang. The ventilation holes allow the air to circulate.
To relieve engorgement, the breast shells with backing
cushions exert gentle pressure around the areola and may
induce slow leaking of milk.
To collect breast milk for later use: Attach the backing
cushions to the non-ventilated breast shells (see the
image on the front page of this user manual). While you
are breastfeeding or expressing from one side, slip an
assembled breast shell inside your bra on the other side to
collect any leaking milk.
Storage of breast milk
Warning: Only breast milk collected during
breastfeeding or expressing should be stored for later
use. Breast milk collected over a longer period may
become contaminated.
To empty the breast shell, carefully remove the backing
cushion and pour the breast milk into a sterilized container.
Place in a refrigerator or freezer as soon as possible.
Breast milk can be stored up to 4 days in a refrigerator or
up to 6 months in a freezer.
Storage of the product - Store in a cool, dry place.
Disposal of the product - According to local regulations.
