First time breastfeeding!

Y’all I got nipple shields today and he immediately latched. First time actually breastfeeding (15 minutes on the one side)! He’s five days old 💙

I’ve been using the nipple shield also, my baby is 1week old. Don’t think we would been able to breastfeed without it

As much as I appreciated these in the beginning with my first they started to become a nuisance because then my daughter wouldn’t latch without it and I had to make sure I knew where they were and that they were clean each time I breast fed and it started to get frustrating 😫

@Liz yes! Flat nipples here too and it’s necessary for us

Hm maybe this is what happened to me and that’s why my daughter wasn’t latching without them?

Flat nipples mean it’s a necessary item for us
