No, you don't have to put frozen cabbage leaves down your top, these are a much better (less smelly) option. Made to assist in easing the discomfort and pain of establishing breastfeeding, these packs can be used frozen to calm engorgement and inflammation, or heated to aid lactation and promote flow.
Have these ready to help in the first few days after birth when your milk comes in, and swelling with it. Use throughout your breastfeeding journey; frozen when boobs feel tender or heated to help open the milk ducts before feeding, or while pumping (that’s why there’s a split). Place in fabric slip before use for extra comfort.

"Ordered these just in case but haven’t needed them yet 3 months postpartum. I’ve popped them in the freezer for now and they seem like a great size and shape to help relieve discomfort if needed. Not sure about there heating capacity yet."
"Used early on to help milk production"
"The shape and flexibility of these gel packs are what make them great - they can also tuck into your bra so you can go hands-free whilst using them. I have used these both as a cold pack (frozen) and as a heat pack. . I didn't use them in the first 2-3 weeks, but in weeks 4 and 5, they saved me from swelling and painful lumps, so I don't regret buying these!"
"Great as a cold pack for reducing inflammation and as a hot pack for encouraging letdown."
"A must buy for postpartum. Easy to use and place in singlet or bra."
