Review: My personal favorite of all the ones I have tried! - I have had some nipple problems while breastfeeding like some thickening and bad vasospasm. Hydrogel pads have been a huge help to reduce and relieve the discomfort. Absolutely favorite hydrogel pad! I have tried the frida mom and momcosy ones and this is the best by far. It is the right amount of sticky - sticks to the breast but not to my fingers when trying to place it on the table while breastfeeding (which is a huge problem with the other ones). And does not fold down or get attached to the bra. It does not dry out fast and re-sticks well throughout the day. It is comfortable, I do not see it through my clothes and seems to work the best for me. I have already reordered it and will be doing so again. ## Features - Pack of 4 - Tender care hydrogel pads - Breastfeeding is a bonding experience for mom and baby ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0011ECPA2 | | Best Sellers Rank | #8,742 in Baby Products ( See Top 100 in Baby Products ) #31 in Nursing Pads | | Brand | Medela | | Country of Origin | USA | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 10,939 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00020451271231, 00020451871233 | | Item Form | Pad | | Manufacturer | Medela | | Manufacturer Part Number | 101046680 | | Model Number | 87123NA | | Net Quantity | 4.0 Count | | Package Size Name | Pack of 4 | | Size | 4 Count (Pack of 1) | | UPC | 020451466804 020451271231 020451871233 | | Unit Count | 4.0 Count | | Warranty Description | no warranty available | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Medela - **Item Form:** Gel - **Product Benefits:** Soothing - **Scent:** Unscented - **Skin Type:** Sensitive ## Images ![Medela Tender Care™ Hydrogel Pads - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71y4RI3uAhL.jpg) ![Medela Tender Care™ Hydrogel Pads - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81dl-RaEcHL.jpg) ![Medela Tender Care™ Hydrogel Pads - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EIWSxaJ-L.jpg) ![Medela Tender Care™ Hydrogel Pads - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81xFn6KXk2L.jpg) ![Medela Tender Care™ Hydrogel Pads - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81r6ZN40K5L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Can anyone tell me ingredients in this?** A: The backing appeared to be plastic, but the part that touches your skin was a gel. I believe it is just a hydrogel, in which case it would be made up of synthetic polymers that absorb a lot of water. So technically water would be the greatest component, followed by something like sodium polyacrylate or acrylate polymers. **Q: How do these compare to Lansinoh Soothies?** A: They are very similar. I personally feel like Medela products are USUALLY superior, but I have used both brands of the gels and liked them both. The Medela hydrogels do not, however, last as long as Lansinoh, which can be used for "up to 72 hours.," The Medela ones state they can be reused for "up to 24 hours." **Q: How do you get these to stay on? Do they just stick on their own? Is the non-skin side sticky (will it cling to a nursing bra?)** A: Both sides have a sticky part on them. I used one side on the inside of my bra. Under the clear sheet is sticky too, and the instructions say to run it under cold water to reduce the sticky if needed. For me that was no help as removing them was excruciating. I then left the clear side on the gel pad just because it did provide limited relief and I did not want to waist the money I spent on the pads. They are in squares, so as it cups around the breast and nipple the material crinkles. The crinkle on the nipple also hurts. **Q: Anyone familiar with the medela soft shells for sore nipples? Which of these products is better to protect nipples between pumping?** A: I have used both and much prefer the hydrogel. The soft shells were uncomfortable, not at all discreet, I have an over supply and would drip into them and it would spill everywhere any time I had to take them out (which is a lot when you are nursing). I felt like they did nothing to heal my crack and just kept my clothes from rubbing against them. The hydrogels actually help heal the cracks and make it comfortable to wear a bra and normal clothes. The hydrogel is more expensive since they only last 24 hours but I threw the soft shells from the hospital away and have been using hydrogels for the last couple of weeks to heal a severe crack. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐ Two Stars *by S***A on 15 July 2016* Not worth the price. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My personal favorite of all the ones I have tried! *by M***K on 24 May 2026* I have had some nipple problems while breastfeeding like some thickening and bad vasospasm.
