Best nipple cream I've ever used Sep 11, 2010
By Ex daycare teacher & Mom I just had my 3rd baby and I was dreading the sore nipples that come with breastfeeding. With both of my other 2 children I used lanolin based nipple creams but couldn't stand the stickiness and the gooey feeling. I also don't think it ever worked very well for me. I was still always sore even though my babies had correct latch on. This time I tried Nipple Butter (I was able to get it at my local Target). WHAT A DIFFERENCE! I started using it in the hospital. That is when the sore nipples started w/ my prior kids. I only used a teeny tiny bit and I noticed I never got sore nipples during my stay. I can't say that I NEVER had sore nipples within that 1st week but as soon as they started to get sore I used a small bit after feeding and also in between feedings and the soreness went away usually by the next feeding. I didn't even need the nipple shields or the gel packs to soothe them. It also wasn't gooey like lanolin. It kind of "melted" on. I also noticed that with the lanolin I had to change my breast pads really often because they always felt wet. The nipple butter didn't seem to "linger" as long. As far as the "sand" that some people are talking about... I noticed a bit of grit if it got too cold but it seemed to melt away when applied and absolutely NEVER felt like sandpaper. It has been 4 weeks now and I've gotten past the "sore nipple" stage. I credit it to this product. I only use it now if my nipples get a bit dry from constant feedings. This time around I'm sure I'll be able to breastfeed my baby longer then I was able to with my other children.

be careful! May 01, 2011
By shark_920@hotmail.com I also did not like lanolin for the stickiness and thought what a great alternative the First Years Nipple Butter was! However for me it has been a total disaster as I have developed awful allergic reaction and am in agony. I called lacatation specialist out today in tears thinking it was a feeding issue and she diagnosed it. I am not allergic to any nuts, so I had not considered it would have any problems. shea butter and almond oil are ingredients and that has been my trigger for the nasty reaction. She said she has seen an increasing number of allergic reactions to alternative creams from this one to mustela as well. SO... take it into consideration when purchasing. I may of course be a random uncommon reaction, but I felt I had to send up a red flag on my experience too, as I would not want anyone to experience this result.

This item is great! Jan 06, 2012

I love this nipple butter. It is lanolin free and has some organic ingredients. I am giving it a 4 stars out of 5 because not all of the ingredients are organic and there is almond extract in it which can be hazardous to mothers with allergies or babies and it doesn't warn you about this on the label. Other than that this product healed my severely chapped nipples in as little as 2 days. The price is right as well and I will continue to use this nipple butter as my son and I aren't allergic to almond.

do NOT use if you have Nut Allergy concerns! Mar 15, 2011

This product contains almond oil. So if you or anyone in your family has a history of severe nut allergies, you may want to skip it and go with Lansinoh instead.
A reaction is probably unlikely, but why take chances with your baby? (I wish that the product ingredients were listed somewhere on the Amazon page... that would be helpful.)
However, if you really want a plant-based alternative to Lansinoh, you might consider the nipple cream by Motherlove. It contains olive oil and beeswax instead. Motherlove Herbal Nipple Cream (1 oz)

Better than lanolin Feb 19, 2011
By mj This is a more thinner constinecy than lanolin, so I like it alot better. The last thing you want to do on sore nipples is rub something rough onto it.
