Guest guest Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Stef, as often as she wants to. After every feed is lovely unless she is desirous of nighttime sleep.

I'd love it if some moms would experiment with using gel pads on one side and the frozen saline pads on the other and see which they liked/worked better. Frozen saline pads would be a lot cheaper!!

Mom's would later remove frozen gauze from the bags and place between nipple and bra or nursing pad for soothing relief. I think the gel pads have taken the place of these in recent years, but moms liked them. Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place. Try it now.
