How to use your ComfortGel
|
To Begin:
- Wash your hands.
- Remove hydrogel from the carrier sheet and save sheet for storage.
- Place cup side of pad on nipple area.
Before Breastfeeding:
- Remove the hydrogel pad. Wash breast with warm water and pat dry.
- Rinse (do not soak) pad with warm water. Pat dry. Place pad with cup side up in the carrier sheet for
clean storage. Note: Do not use soaps or detergents to clean ComfortGel pads because this may compromise
integrity of the pad.
After Breastfeeding:
- Wash breast with warm water and pat dry.
- Reposition pad on nipple area until time for next feeding.
CAUTION: Pad must be removed prior to breastfeeding to prevent accidental choking.
- If you notice signs of infection or irritation, discontinue use and contact a board certified lactation consultant or your
primary care physician.
- If after several feedings the pad becomes cloudy or milky, discard it and use a new one.
