Catch - Milk Collection Shells - Discreet, Leak-Protection, Reusable Silicone Cups - Collect Up to 1oz - Breastfeeding Essentials - Set of Two

Game changer for constant leaking. I've had an invisible clogged duct for days now and was leaking through everything, and leaking ounces in just a few hours. These are so comfortable for a shell and collect so cleanly. I don't save the milk I catch but the design makes it easy to do so if you wanted to.

Work so much better than regular disposable or reusable nipple pads. They keep my nips hydrated and collect milk discreetly. I love them. Cleaning is a breeze with being able to remove the silicone part. These are super comfortable and will be getting another pair!

Below is a review of 4 options for catching milk and sore nipple protection to hopefully help another momma get the right product the first time rather than having to try and return a bunch of products while taking care of a new baby like I did. haakaa Ladybug- small nipple hole (painful on the areola) silicone is more rigid, I’m assuming to be able to suction but it’s just not conducive for healing sore nipples, uncomfortable to sleep in. Noticeable under bra. If looking for gentle suction for letdown but something baby can’t kick off, the Elvie Curve is amazing but unfortunately expensive. Medela TheraShells- look absolutely ridiculous, only about 2in in diameter so on any size breast these are going to be noticeable and weird looking. The inverted/flat nipple back has the smallest nipple opening that I can’t imagine it would fit anyones nipples comfortably and would further cause damage to the sore Areola. The sore nipple back is comfortable but I just felt silly wearing them because of how they looked. These may catch leaks but not much and they have vent holes at the top so I imagine they will leak if wearing them to bed. No suction. Phillips Avent- these come with shells with and without air vents depending on whether you want to use them for collecting milk or for sore nipples. I really thought out of the 4 these were going to be my favorite because of the shape of the silicone cushion but these were still painful on my areola. They also look unnatural under a bra and for bigger chested women are definitely going to be noticeable. Elvie Catch- a higher price point but definitely worth it. Out of the 4 options I tried, these were my favorite. Instantly comfortable, discreet under a bra, comfortable enough to sleep in. The silicone piece that touches the breast is soft and flexible and not rigid like the Haaka lady bugs and I feel will actually allow my nipples to heal. The collection container is small but at this point I care less about collecting and more about protecting my nipples from sticking to nipple pads. If you have long nipples, these may not work for you because of the flatter collection chamber, your nipples will touch the hard plastic, defeating the sore nipple purpose. But there’s about 3/4in depth so most nipples will fit fine. Taking apart and putting these back together is kind of a pain but doable. No suction like the haaka but I’m fine with that as my supply is now more regulated and engorgement isn’t such a huge problem. (If engorged and have sore nipples I highly recommend the Elvie Curve that has gentle suction and can’t be kicked off by baby as you’re nursing the other side. These are less comfy to sleep in but still doable and they have a large collection chamber.)

I got these for use at night and throughout the day. The only time they leak for me is when the baby accidentally knocks into them or (at times) when I am pouring the milk out, it will come out of the side. Neither of these are big deals as they don’t leak very often. They are also very comfortable, discreet, and I don’t noticing them at any point in the day or as I am sleeping. I do, however try to dump them often or right after I put my baby down throughout the night.

9/10 I do give 5 star review although I say 9/10 for rating. These are great, just simple breast cups! They work well, I use on one side when nursing and pumping on the other, I sleep with them as well, but just be careful if you sleep on your back, if they become too full they will leak a little. At the moment, I’m up twice in the middle of the night, so I catch it before it has time to fill up. There is a small lip that won’t let ALL the milk come out, but you’re definitely getting majority of what leaked out. No judgement on this next part, just a suggestion - Use a syringe to get the rest out if you're anal about getting every last drop of that liquid gold! I know some moms it’s hard enough to produce, so every last drop is essential. Easy assembly after first sanitization and every cleaning. Just two simple pieces. I have xl chest, so it’s a bit noticeable when wearing these out of the house. All together, I do recommend these instead of using disposable or reusable nursing nipple pads. That’s a waste when you’re trying to save all milk.

I want to love these as it is a pain having to worry about breast pads all day long; however, I’m not sure I do. Pros: -you catch the milk that would have otherwise been lost -they are very discreet -only two parts to wash -inexpensive compared to disposable breast milk pads Cons: -they leave indents in my chest -they get hot and don’t allow airflow to your nipples (especially problematic on warmer days) -the rim of the silicone part retains water so it’s hard to let air dry -when you pour milk out some remains contaminating the next batch of milk (I only ever use the milk caught for baths, rather than feeding baby because of this) -have to have a separate container to pour milk into every time you feed if you leak often throughout the day

These are AMAZING! I always have a big let down when I am pumping one side and not the other. This catches all my milk on the other side so that none is wasted. I know all you mamas agree that every drop of milk is very valuable! These have saved me from changes my clothes many times too because I start to leak. They catch more than I expected and I love the ease of cleaning.

I wish I had known about these sooner! I suffered from cracked nipples, thrush, and mastatis, and I know all of that could have been prevented if I had known about these. And since I started using these, I have not had any issues with my nipples, and it no longer hurts to pump. Not only does this provide a barrier between your nipples and your bra, but it also works to collect milk between pumps/feeds. That's a huge plus! As a mom of twins, every drop of milk mattered, so if i could get an additional ounce here and there, I was happy.

Great milk collectors! They are not too bulky and in my opinion they are very discreet under tighter clothing. Though they would probably look weird with larger breasts. Very comfortable, no leaks when bending over, and easy to clean.

My doctor recommended the hakaa one, but I decided to do my research and I read a detailed positive review here so decided to get the elvie and I’m so glad I did! Super easy to use and finally done with leaking the whole time and having to change my clothes 10x a day lol, not really noticeable under the bra and you definitely don’t feel them

Très bon produit, j’aime beaucoup la colorette en silicone qui permet un placement optimal qui ne bouge pas. il ne se voit pas dans le soutien-gorge. le petit plus: la boîte design où on a l’impression d’acheter un petit bijou, une manière de se faire plaisir avec l’allaitement. Je recommande!

Facili da usare e di ottima fattura. Li uso per raccogliere le perdite dal lato opposto rispetto a dove si attacca il mio bimbo e mi permette di non sporcarmi ma anche di raccogliere il latte per futuri utilizzi!

Muy buenas para no derramar ninguna gota en el bra, logro juntar una onza y ya no creo que le de para más porque se saldría pero valen la pena !
