Kamillosan Chamomile Ointment Reviews

I really suffered when I was breast feeding my daughter it was real agony. My neighbour recommended Kamillosan to me and went out and bought me some which I think cost around £5. It comes in a cardboard box and inside is the tube of cream. It is available in most chemists. It is made from chamomile so is great for healing nipples ...  Read the complete review

I bought this from Asda while pregnant after being advised by a friend to have it in just in case and I am very glad I did. It cost £4.99 for a 15g tube. This product is chamomile ointment. You open it by unscrewing the lid then turning it round and using the top of the lid to pierce the tube (in the same way as you open a new tube of ...  Read the complete review

I have fairly severe eczema which can flare up at a moments notice, I liken my eczema to the little girl with the curl as when it's good it's very very good, but when it's bad it's horrid! I mentioned to my daughter in passing that I have had a flare up on the backs of my knees which has resulted in the skin cracking meaning whenever I ...  Read the complete review

I've just been reading other people's reviews on this and I didn't know it could be used for sore nipples! I must remember this when my next baby is born as I always have some Kamillosan in my baby cupboard!! I bought this when Sudocrem (which is what I thought you HAD to use at all times on your baby's bottom due to advertising and ...  Read the complete review

When I was pregnant with my daughter I did the obligatory purchasing of all the goods I was told we would need after her birth. Kamillosan was recommended to me during one of my antenatal classes as a "must have" for breast feeding mothers. The product is designed to soothe painful nipples while breastfeeding and with this one ...  Read the complete review

Kamillosan Kamillosan is an ointment which is designed to help sore nipples due to breastfeeding. Made with chamomile, it is supposed to soothe and calm sore nipples as well as help with nappy rash and other minor skin conditions. I used this for about a week when Eva, my little girl, was 1 week old and found it to be absolutely no help ...  Read the complete review

I was advised to use this by my sister and mother, and have found this worked really well. I used it when my nipples were sore from breastfeeding, fortunately I didn't suffer too much. When I did I rubbed a small amount in after feeding. The ingredients are not harmful to babies, so you don't have to wash before breast ...  Read the complete review

My daughter and I took a few weeks to get used to breastfeeding. She would latch on fine and would drink without problems. Then she would fall asleep and slide off the nipple. As she seemed like she was constantly feeding I used to leave her one the breast for five minutes to make sure she had finished her feed but more often than not she would ...  Read the complete review

If breastfeeding hurts, then Kamillosan is not going to help. There are *no* clinical studies to say it does. Breastfeeding shouldn't hurt and if it does, then you may need expert help from a trained breastfeeding expert - probably not your midwife or health visitor unless they have a particular interest in this (their training does not cover ...  Read the complete review

I started to breastfeed my baby as soon as she was born. However after about a week I had one very sore and cracked nipple. The agony was unbelivable and I felt as though I was living in fear of the next feed as I knew it was going to hurt so much! The midwife recommended Kamillosan and within 12 hours the nipple was looking much better ...  Read the complete review

I always knew that I was going to breastfeed my baby, but I didn't know how painful it was going to be. For the first few days I was fine but after that I started to get really sore during each feed, especially the night feeds when I was absolutely packed full of milk, as my baby slept for a good 5 hours. I would put him to ...  Read the complete review

This is a great nipple cream. I started using it as soon as I started breastfeeding my baby and I've had no problems at all with sore nipples. I massage a tiny amount into the nipple after each feed and it keeps them soft and prevents soreness. I was told by my midwife that it is not necessary to wash the cream off before the next feed ...  Read the complete review

Just in case you are a man reading this, please keep reading, it may not be usefull to you NOW, but it may be in the future!! (when a baby comes along!!) This is like a cream in a tube but it is more that just a cream! I swear that without this, I probably would have given up breast feeding a lot earlier that 8 months!! ...  Read the complete review
