The AVENT ISIS Comfort Breast Shells are worn inside the bra to help you overcome
some common problems you may encounter during breast feeding.

To protect sore or cracked nipples and help
relieve engorgement

◆ Attach the Ultrasoft Backing Cushions to the Ventilated Shells and slip them inside your
bra. The soft cushions will mould comfortably to the shape of your breasts and the domed
shells protect your sore or cracked nipples from chafing. The ventilation holes allow the air
to circulate.

◆ The Ventilated Shells can also be used to help relieve engorgement. They exert a gentle
pressure around the areola and induce a slow leaking of your milk. DO NOT feed this
milk to your baby, as milk collected over a long period of time may become contaminated.

To collect breast milk for later use

◆ Sterilise the Breast Milk Saver Shells (no holes) and the silicone Backing Cushions in an
AVENT Steam Steriliser (Electric or Microwave) or by boiling for at least 10 minutes.

◆ Attach the Ultrasoft Backing Cushions to the Breast Milk Saver Shells. While you are
feeding or expressing from one side, slip an assembled Breast Milk Saver Shell inside your
bra on the other side to collect any leaking milk. Only milk collected whilst feeding or
expressing should be stored for later use.

◆ To empty the shell, carefully remove the silicone Backing Cushion and pour the breast
milk into a sterilised bottle or pre-sterilised bottle bag. Place in a fridge or freezer as soon
as possible after collection. The breast milk can be stored for up to 24 hours in the fridge
or 3 months in the freezer.

◆ Wash all items thoroughly after use.

NB: It is recommended not to wear breast shells for longer than 40 minutes at a time as
they may cause undue pressure on the milk ducts.

Other items in the AVENT Breast Feeding Range

◆ To relieve engorgement immediately prior to feeding, you can also use the AVENT
ISIS Breast Pump to express a small amount of milk to soften the breast and allow your

baby to latch on.

◆ To allow you to continue breast feeding without pain, even with sore or cracked
nipples, use the AVENT Nipple Protectors. The soft, odourless, ultra fine silicone
protects the nipple whilst the unique cut away shape still allows skin to skin contact with
your baby.

◆ If you have flat or inverted nipples, use the AVENT Niplette for a few minutes just
before feeding, to pull the nipple out and allow your baby to latch on. The AVENT
Niplette can also be used to effect a permanent cure after you have stopped breast feeding.
