Pads to prevent pain
The market for products to ease nipple pain caused by nursing is vast and mostly full of useless junk, but Lansinoh Soothies gel pads are a standout exception. The stick-on pads provide instant cooling and soothing relief, and also hide the “bullet-smuggling” look when mom appears in public. Each pair of pads is good only for a short period and they’re not cheap, so they make a great shower gift for a mom who might otherwise consider them an extravagance. To quote one happy Amazon customer’s experience: “Instant relief. Tears of joy fell from my eyes. I could hear Lionel Richie singing ‘Hello,’ with a thousand angels singing background vocals.”
