BenefitsWHY USE ORGANIC COTTON?
100% organic cotton is widely recommended to protect the sensitive skin of the nipple during breastfeeding. Its use helps prevent the risk of irritation and allergies related to the use of chemicals, and the absence of toxic residues in contact with skin helps to keep it healthy and clean.

Tips
TipsAVOIDING CRACKS DURING BREASTFEEDING
- It is important to adopt a good posture when breastfeeding (with your back straight and well supported by the chair or sofa, you have to take the baby back and not just the neck, and make sure the baby takes all the areola with his mouth, etc.)
- Swap your breasts, starting with the one with no cracks or less affected by them.
- After giving breastfeeding, massage the nipple with your milk -which has healing and antibacterial properties- and then let it air dry.
- Use cotton breast pads favouring perspiration and maintaining optimum moisture. Cotton helps to prevent cracking and, if you have any, promote healing.
- Choose breast pads designed to avoid the release of fibres that can stick to the wounds, which can cause unnecessary complications such as infections.
- Use cotton bras to enhance perspiration and avoid tight and synthetic clothing.
