Has anybody used them?? Or something similar?
My ds is 9 weeks and gaining weight rapidly, I have a very strong let down and feel that I'm wasting milk from the 'other' side during a feed. I don't want to start expressing as I feel I already have an oversupply but would like to have some milk, either in the fridge or freezer for dp or ds 1 to be able to give him a bottle. Advice please..

I used collection shells instead of breast pads as I always leaked and during breastfeeding it was ridiculous.

I had a fast let down and a lot of foremilk so (going back 9 years) I was advised to pump the first bit of milk otherwise ds1 was literally gulping down the milk as it was coming out too fast for him.

So I collected both pumped milk and leaked milk, and fridged then froze them.
