Nursing Cups: A Game-Changer for Breastfeeding Mums
Ahoy, new mums and seasoned breastfeeding champions! If you’ve ever felt like your nipples have gone ten rounds with a cheese grater, you’re not alone. Enter the unsung hero of the nursing world: nursing cups. These little wonders are about to become your new breast friends (see what we did there?).
What Are Nursing Cups?
Nursing cups, also known as breast shells or milk collection shells, are protective devices designed to shield your nipples during breastfeeding. They’re like tiny, lightweight helmets for your nips, providing a barrier between sensitive skin and clothing or breast pads.
Why You Might Need Nursing Cups
Let’s face it, breastfeeding can be a rollercoaster ride. Here are some reasons why nursing cups might be your ticket to a smoother journey:
- Sore or cracked nipples (ouch!)
- Inverted or flat nipples
- Leaky breasts between feeds
- Need for air circulation to promote healing
- Protection against friction from clothing

Now, hold onto your nursing bras, because we’re about to introduce you to the crème de la crème of nursing cups. Drum roll, please… 🥁
Tiny Trek Rentals is thrilled to offer our game-changing Silver Nursing Cups. These aren’t just any nursing cups; they’re like the superhero version, complete with special powers!
What Makes Our Silver Nursing Cups Special?
- Pure Silver Magic: Made from 999 pure silver, these cups are like kryptonite for bacteria. Silver has natural antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, helping to prevent and heal nipple cracks and infections faster than you can say “cluster feeding”.

- Size Matters: Available in two sizes to ensure a perfect fit:
- Large: 5.5 cm width, 1.8 cm height (ideal for C cup or more, areola less than 5.5 cm)
- Small: 4.5 cm width, 1.5 cm height (perfect for C cup or less, areola less than 4.5 cm)
- Matte Finish: Because even your nipples deserve a touch of sophistication.
- Ergonomic Design: These cups fit discreetly under your nursing bra, so you can strut your stuff without looking like you’re smuggling UFOs.
Benefits That’ll Make You Say “Holy Cow!”

- Comfort is Key: The ergonomic design ensures a snug fit, providing relief without feeling like you’ve strapped dinner plates to your chest.
- Reusable Wonder: Unlike disposable nursing pads that end up in landfills faster than you can change a nappy, these cups are reusable. Mother Earth (and your wallet) will thank you!
- Easy Peasy Lemon Squeezy: Simply pop them over your nipples inside your bra. No need for creams, lotions, or a PhD in rocket science.
- Protective Shield: These cups create a barrier against bacteria and friction, like a force field for your nips!
How to Use Silver Nursing Cups
Using our Silver Nursing Cups is easier than convincing your partner to do the 3 AM feed. Here’s a quick guide:
- Wash your hands thoroughly (let’s keep those germs at bay!).
- Clean the cups with mild soap and warm water before first use.
- Place the cup directly over your nipple, with the nipple centered in the cup’s hollow.
- Secure your nursing bra over the cup to keep it in place.
- Wear for as long as comfortable between feedings.
- Remove before breastfeeding (your baby prefers the real deal, not silver!).
- Clean after each use with mild soap and warm water.
When to Use Silver Nursing Cups
Our Silver Nursing Cups are versatile little helpers. Here are some prime times to put them to work:
- Between feedings to protect sore or cracked nipples
