About this deal

The last thing you want to do is root around for a nipple shield you’re not even sure is clean, while the pitches of your baby’s hungry cry become more and more frantic. A nipple shield can offer support and relief for these different reasons, and they’re worth trying if you find yourself struggling with breastfeeding. The latch of babies with tongues ties is unusually shallow, causing immense discomfort and pain for mothers and frustration for babies. For that reason, the purifyou Premium nipple shield, which comes with a clear pacifier case, is your best bet. Once you’ve found the correct nipple shield size, you’ll want to get it a little bit wet with breast milk so it sticks better.

The innovative cut-out shape, which comes in sizes 16, 20, or 24 millimeters, allows the baby’s nose to make contact with his or her mother’s skin. Nipple shields come in different sizes, designed for small, medium, or large diameter nipples, so you need to know your measurements, says Dr Lee. The nipple itself is designed to allow a consistent, but not too strong, flow of milk and has air holes to prevent gas bubbles from being ingested by a nursing infant—which can lead to colic, among other conditions.A nipple shield can really help with latching problems by providing the perfect base for your baby to latch onto, while at the same time regulating the flow of milk. The nipple shields come in three sizes—16 millimeters, 20 millimeters, and 24 millimeters—to fit various nipple sizes. The patented design of the Haakaa Nipple Shield puts space between your nipple and your baby’s mouth, making it ideal if you are experiencing nipple soreness or have a baby who bites down while nursing.

The symmetrical design and anti-slip ridges on the outer edges make the nipple shield easy to hold down while a baby latches. To determine your nipple shield size, grab a ruler or measuring tape and measure the diameter of your nipple at the base, but be sure to not include the areola and measure in millimeters. Sometimes, babies may have a physical impairment which interferes with attachment to the breast, for example, a tongue-tie, which means they cannot open their mouths wide enough.When a baby has a tongue-tie, they may not be able to open their mouth wide enough to get the whole areola into their mouth,’ says Dr Lee. When you use a nipple shield to breastfeed, each time the baby sucks, this draws the nipple more firmly into the shield and helps ensure the nipple is correctly stretched.
