Carina asks about sore nipples and sea shells.

I have had recent experience of a mother using sea shells in the way 
you describe. She was a mother I was supporting with a persistently 
sore nipple (mainly on one side, IIRC) and she found her way to sea 
shells via a Norwegian friend who recommended them. She and I had 
already worked *a lot* on positioning and attachment, with some 
improvement but it was not consistent. She bought a pair of shells 
over the internet, and she reckoned they really did help.

Of course maybe her  nipples would have improved anyway, but who knows?
