🌸 Silverettes for Damaged Ni***es

Many mums are now choosing to use Silverettes. I'm interested to know your thoughts and how Silverettes have worked for you!

Silverettes are small, silver nursing cups designed to help soothe and protect sore or damaged ni***es during breastfeeding. Silver has natural antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, and healing properties. When worn between feeds, Silverettes create a gentle, moist environment that supports skin repair while preventing friction from clothing or breast pads. They can be a helpful addition to your healing plan β€” especially when used alongside good positioning, latch support, and guidance from a lactation consultant.

Why Antenatal Breastfeeding Education Matters!

Preparing before your baby arrives makes a world of difference!

✨ Build confidence: Learn what’s normal, how milk production works, and what to expect in the early days.
πŸ‘Ά Start strong: Families who attend antenatal breastfeeding classes are more likely to have a smooth start and feed for longer.
🀍 Support for both parents: Partners learn how to help, comfort, and encourage.
🌿 Avoid common worries: Understanding normal newborn behaviour helps reduce stress and confusion.
πŸ’ͺ Feel empowered: Make informed choices that suit you and your baby.

Education before birth means you begin your feeding journey calm, confident, and supported. πŸ’«

Social media is always challenging (well for me anyway πŸ˜†!)

Life has been super crazy for our family.

Whilst my brothers were winning premierships we also welcomed a new little addition to our family ❀️

Nine days ago I was honoured to be by Charlie & Caleb’s side when my beautiful first grandchild was born.

Riley Anne Carr πŸ©·πŸŒΈπŸ’—πŸ’ 19/9/2025

Seeing my baby bring her baby into the world was nothing short of amazing. I have so much love and admiration for you both. You are the best Mum & Dad and little Riley is so lucky to have you there to love & guide her through life.

For me being a Grandma (I’m actually going to be called Min) fills my heart with so much joy it is bursting with love for you! Little Riley you are just so scrumptious πŸ₯°
