When to use nipple shields

There are three main circumstances when you might use nipple shields:

• If you have sore, cracked nipples, or are suffering from nipple pain.
• If you have flat or inverted nipples.
• If your baby has problems latching on to the nipple and is not drinking milk well. 

How to use nipple shields

1. Wash your hands with drinking-quality water and dry them thoroughly
2. Grip the wings of the nipple shield to guide it into place. Moistening the shield with drinking-quality water will help it stick.
3. The nipple shield should fit comfortably on your nipple without pinching ( nipple shields come in three sizes, so you can find the best fit for your type of nipple).

Remember you’ll need to clean them after each use and disinfect them once a day

Nipple shields come with a convenient carry case so you can keep them safe between uses.
