Best recommendations for nipple shields 🍼

Question

My baby struggles to stay latched on ever since he was born, but does well with the assistance of a nipple shield. However I want to invest in a better one than the hospital has supplied. This one slips and moves and quite frankly I’d love more than one so I have more efficiency between cleaning it and the next feed as he loves cluster feeding at the moment .
So what are your recommendations ladies? 😊

Answer

Hey, I used these and they were great. It can be tricky if you have fast let down before Bub even latches and the shield fills with milk which makes it slip but I always just lifted the bottom and let the milk drip out and then it suctioned on again. Hope that helps

Answer

We used the Medela ones a few times, but it all resolved after baby had his tongue ties cut. Have your little one been evaluated for ties(by someone that actually knows what they're doing!)?

Answer

My sis relied on nipple shields and it prevented hindmilk, leading to weight problems. It was really hard for her to reteach a latch without it. Just something to keep in mind
