What it is: A sterile saline spray, made of simple salt and water, for soothing sore and cracked nipple skin between feedings.
How to use it: Spray directly onto the nipple area in between feedings. Simply air dry, no rinsing or patting required. Use it before applying No-Mess Nipple Balm, so the spray lands first and the balm seals over the top.
Before feeding: No need to rinse it off before feeding. That single fact is what makes it usable in the fifteen minutes between one session and the next.
Why a spray: Skin that is already cracked gets touched by nothing. No fingers in a jar. No cotton pad. The mist lands and you leave it alone.
Bottle: 2 fl oz. Keep the cap on and store it as the label directs.
When to get help: Cracked skin is often a latch problem wearing a different hat. If the cracking keeps coming back, or you see spreading redness or a wound that is not settling down, have a lactation consultant or your provider look at it. Saline is comfort care between feedings.
