Ear buddies

Hi, this is my first post on here...

Just wondering if anyone has reviews of ear buddies? I have a 12 week old daughter who's ears are starting to stick out (which she has inherited from me!) I would rather she didn't need to get an operation like myself when she's older to avoid teasing at school.

Any help would be much appreciated - do they work? Do they seem to be pain free? Wouldn't like to use them if they are going to cause her pain.

I used them for a little while with DS2. His ears started to stick out at about 3 months so after doing a lot of research and reading everything I could about them (there are some old threads on here) Idecided to give them a go. Like you I didn't want him to be teased in future but I also felt guilty that I was even thinking about it. I cried when I put them on because I still felt guilty but DS2 had no idea they were on. They were painless and he never even touched them.
I was fine with them in the house and close family but I hated explaining to other people like work friends and I did feel conscious when we were out as he wouldn't keep a hat on.
They have made a difference and his ears are much straighter than before even though I didn't keep them.on for as long as recommended.
