When you're a new mom, nursing and the general uncomfortable feeling that comes a long with it can be overwhelming. If you have older family members, they might even suggest putting cabbage leaves to help the tenderness. Thank goodness that we don't have to do that anymore! This cream is great at soothing the fullness and uncomfortable feeling that comes during pregnancy and well into the first year of your newborn's life. I am not a particular fan of the scent - it seems very manly, in my opinion. But the effectiveness outweighs that by a mile. When applied, it gives a gentle, cooling and fresh feeling which immediately helps soothe the pressure.
