I used the Playtex soothie style gels kind and bought them at Target. I didn't need to refridgerate because they felt cool and soothing to the touch anyway. I tried to use them once nightly while the nips were healing and use Lansinoh gel in between regular feedings.

Also, I have some gel packs for freezing or microwaving. Mostly I microwaved these for engorgment or clogged ducts. They are just like normal gel hot/cold packs except they are round and shaped for breast.
