Hi All,

 

I do have a financial interest in these lovely little do-dads because I sell
them.  I have sold the only 2 X-Lg PP flanges I had to women who both had
nipples the size of quarters!  Both had classic cases of oro-boobular
dysfunction and the Medela flanges (36mm) just didn't feel good for them.
They loved the PP.  :-)

 

Some moms who you would think would do best in the Med flanges (22-29mm)
don't and need the large, and some you might think would need the large (30
- 35mm) don't - they need the Med.  I have learned that you need to test
them out - figure out what size should work and have them try - and hope it
does!  :-)

 

I would say about 85% of my clients who do purchase them love them.  The
other 15% either don't like them or decide they aren't any better for them
than the other brands.  Moms with less elastic nipples tend to like the PP
more because many of those non-elastic nipples don't do well with the
sharper angle of the other brands.just my observation after selling them for
almost 2 yrs now.  They work for many but not for all which is typical of
most products and people.  I'm just glad to have another option to offer.

 

For anyone wanting more information on them just do a search for Pumpin' Pal
Super Shields.  

 

Warmly,

Jaye
