Large Conical Nipple Shields to Help Breastfeeding w/ Retracted Nipples (2pk)

This nipple shield is a silicone nipple that is placed over the maternal nipple to make it easier for the infant to latch. For mothers with true inverted nipples or infants with oral abnormalities, this is a good way to facilitate breastfeeding until the time is given to correct the essential problem. Comes in multiple sizes and shapes, Small Cherry, Medium Cherry, Small Conical, Medium Conical, Large Conical. Moms are encouraged to buy and use nipple shields with the assistance of a lactation consultant or a healthcare specialist. Two factors should be taken into consideration when purchasing a nipple shield: first, the nipple shield should fit tighter than a breast flange and the size of the baby's mouth should be taken into consideration. Second, the nipple shield should be about 1-2 mm bigger than the diameter of the nipple. For example, a 16mm diameter nipple can use an 18mm nipple shield. Owned and operated by fellow moms, lactation consultants, and registered nurses. We are committed to supporting every mother on the beautiful journey of breastfeeding.
