Breast Pump Flange Inserts – Soft Stretchy Plastic Cushions for Pumping Comfort, Fits 21mm–28mm Flanges, BPA-Free and Latex-Free Breastfeeding Accessories (1 Pair, Made in USA)

I am a second time around exclusive pumper. This time I self diagnosed as having elastic nipples after doing some research. I was in so much pain from my nipples rubbing against my flanges top the point they were raw and cracking. Many moms recommended these cushions to help aide the healing process and reduce the pain. Best purchase ever! I can tell already within a week of consistent 6x daily use that they’re going to need replaced quickly. For what they are, they feel over priced. But I can’t find any comparable product and I don’t think my nipples would survive the next 8 months without them! My only complaint aside from cost is they aren’t HSA eligible. 😢 otherwise, highly recommend this for exclusive pumpers struggling with abused nipples! There was a little learning curve on placement but once I got it down my output went up and I was able to get my nipples healed!

It seems like this company is trying to slap its customers in the face with the insane pricing of these beaugen inserts. There are desperate pumping mamas who are in major pain due to their elastic nipples and they seem to be taking full advantage of that desperation. The inserts are extremely thin silicone, they look like they would cost around $0.25 to manufacture. Then the price is marked up 10,000% to $25. I could understand the high cost if the product was long lasting and a one time purchase. But they are so thin and flimsy that they will not last despite how well you care for them. I used them for 1 day and they were stretched out and worthless after that. Can you imagine paying $25 per day to be able to use these cushions that look like they cost almost nothing to make? I absolutely can’t afford that. No matter how well they work, the cost just isn’t feasible. If the product was more durable then I would use it, but unfortunately the company seems more intent on price gouging rather than helping its customers. I also don’t like how they give very little by way of instructions. No mention of whether or not to use lubrication with them or what size flange to use them with, etc. For exclusively pumping mamas, this is just not a good option because they don’t hold up and are too expensive. For the same price you can buy Lacteck silicone flanges that are useful for a long time. They may not be quite as comfortable as the beaugens but if you compare paying $25 for flanges that last several months or more to $25 inserts that last one day, the flanges win hands down. Don’t waste your money or support a company that does this to their customers!

I purchased these in hopes to size down the flanges for my Elvie Stride and hopefully make pumping a bit more comfortable. I needed a 17 mm flange but the smallest size available for Elvie stride is 21 mm. So these sized them down to 17 mm I believe. While pumping was significantly more comfortable, all of the sudden my pump couldn't trigger a let down and my output was much lower (I could feel the suction just fine, and my pump parts are all up to date). This morning I didn't get any milk out of one side and maybe a half oz out of the other. I took the inserts out and pumped again and got 3 oz and 5 oz out of the respective sides. Maybe they work better with traditional flanges as opposed to the collection cups. Just bummed because they are pretty pricey.

Prior to this purchase, I did not look forward to pumping. Even after lubricating the flanges it was always uncomfortable and the pinching was awful. A lactation nurse recommended this product, but the price had me unsure initially. However, I was desperate for help and relief. And boy did this deliver! Still experience a small amount of pinching, but nowhere near what it is without. I find I don't even have to use lubrication, this helps protect the sensitive skin from too much friction as is. This adds 1-2 mm to the diameter of the flange, so the company recommends to use a flange that is 1-2 sizes larger than what you would normally use, smallest being 21 mm (I was using a 19 mm flange before, but had to get a 21 mm to use these). TLDR: if you're tired of trying various different flange sizes and lubricating products without success, these are worth the try! Will be buying again for sure!

If you read the instructions you’re supposed to “train” these to fit your flange. Once I did that, they fit perfectly and helped a lot with elastic nipples! The major downside is that the stickiness doesn’t last long. It does say replace every 2 weeks on the high end but these MIGHT last you a week if you’re exclusively pumping like I am. I’ve had these for a week and the stickiness has gone down a lot. I don’t think they’ll make it to two weeks. I will buy more because I haven’t found another solution that works for me.

I was skeptical about this product but it really has improved my pumping experience. My first baby I kept getting sore cracked nipples while pumping despite using nipple creams. This silicone flange has eliminated the friction and really don’t need to use any nipple cream anymore (always use cream though). It’s reduced the time I’ve felt sore after pumping from like 1hr to like maybe 10 mins. Yes how it sits in the flange is a little weird but it doesn’t need to fit against it perfectly. The point of the product is that it provides a buffer. My “lame boob” has also produced more since using this product I think because of the comfort it provides while using it.

They are really comfy and easy to attach to the flanges. I give it a 4-star rating as my output seems to be a little diminished with them (might be because my breasts have got used to being pulled roughly by the flanges?)

Funkar inte riktigt som den ska. Den är svår att jobba med.

Worked perfectly for me and my pumps 🥰

I'm exclusively pumping and have very elastic nipples which are causing discomfort and blocked ducts. I've tried different flanges as well as "Pumpin Pals", but nothing has worked until now. These are great and have made pumping so much more comfortable! Highly recommend.

Inappropriate. I need my refund
