This is a WONDERFUL product! It saved my bra and shirt from hitting the laundry basket everytime I nursed! Also able to bag the milk that the milksaver "caught" and use for future feedings!

I save between 6 and 10 ounces every day with this awesome product. It keeps me dry too and I don't need to buy pads. LOVE LOVE LOVE IT. My friend uses her collected milk to make her son's rice cereal.

I came across this product or device for breastfeeding mommies called milkies milk savers. I debated for a long time if I really wanted to spend the $25 to get one, I asked myself how bad do I really wanted to save the 1 or 2oz it catches. The answer was yes! I do! I would rather try to catch what is going to come out anyway rather then pump.
I will admit when I first got the milkie in the mail I hated it, it was bulky and thick, nothing like it looks in the picture. I was about to return it when I realized I didn't read on the website that I couldn't return it. :(
So yesterday Nolan was taking was one of his longs naps when I could feel that my milk was about to come in, not wanting to wake him, I gave the milkie a shot. Bulky? Yes, Discreet? No!! Milk Saver? Yes! within like a hour or so it felt like, I was over flowing!!
I'm excited to not pump and I will have Nolan food saved for the babysitters :)
I recommend a stretchy bra and a loose shirt and for the record I will only use this at home, too much hassle to use it while breastfeeding away from home.

I have loved this product! Definitely worth the price! It is so nice to be able to save, not waste, the extra milk for my baby to have later, or mix with cereal.
I didn't get this until my baby was 2 months old, but I wish I'd had it from the beginning. I'd suggest getting this and using it as soon as your milk comes in and you're fairly comfortable nursing. The leakage is greatest early on, and tapers off as the months go by, so the benefits are greatest in the beginning.
I also just use this at home, it is too bulky to wear discretely in public.
I usually use it on the non-nursing breast while nursing, but occasionally I'll use it to gently relieve some pressure when engorged and baby is not wanting to nurse right then.
I also find that even when I won't leak into a nursing pad, I will still leak some into the milk saver. I suppose because there's no pressure on the nipple (to stop milk flow) when wearing the milk saver. So I feel it is also helping to keep my milk supply up just a little more than only nursing would do.
And the saved milk is an AWESOME benefit! A great way to build up a freezer stash of milk without pumping, or without as much pumping!

This isn't for everyone...I was hopeful after reading such great reviews on this product. The price point was a bit high but I decided to try it anyway. This is my second baby and I really don't leak that much. I've tried it for over a week now and have only gotten drops. I seem to leak only during the long stretches at night. If they could only invent something to catch it at night.....
