My baby didn't like these and wouldn't latch on but I only tried it once .

Sadly the shields are not fit for purpose im my case the thick material they consist of does not fully secure to the breast and therefore falls of immediately when baby commences feeds. Hugely disappointing and caused a great deal of frustration and upset for me and baby.

I used these in the first few months of breastfeeding my son and have just rephrased as I'm expecting another baby in a few weeks. I was determined to breastfeed but, suffered terribly with pain, latching, mastitis during my first experience I almost have up. My mum recommended nipple shields and bought these which were an absolute lifesaver. If I didn't have them, I would not have gone on to have the positive experience that I did have in the end. Professionals give all sorts of "advice" on breastfeeding - none of which worked for me - and advised against nipple shields because they'll "mess up the latch" they don't. They help you get past the painful first few weeks when you and your baby are both learning from scratch and then you don't need them anymore. My son point blank refused to feed with them one day and that was it. I am eternally grateful to these nipple shields.

The nipple shields have saved my breastfeeding journey! I was so sore and not wanting to feed due to the pain and I was skeptical as to how my baby would latch onto the shield and not cause confusion but also relieve some of my pain, but there was no need to worry as my baby latched with no problems. The shield is a good size for the nipple to be pulled into for the feed and also the soft silicone teat moulds into baby's mouth. I would highly recommend having shields to help with any pain and discomfort.

I was really surprised with the nipple shields, they attach really well and definitely help with that sore nipples when you first start breastfeeding, baby took to it really well, overall I think they are a great idea and great product!

i got these a little while ago for my partner as she was breastfeeding and complaining how sore it was. I came across these and thought we should try it! OMG!!! My partner said it was the best thing since the tommee tippee prep machine! She has told me (every time she feeds) that she feels nothing but comfort (instead of teeth!) Now she actually enjoys breastfeeding and can relax with baby and have a real bonding moment every time. Would highly recommend to anyone wanting to breastfeed!

Really hoped that this would help with my bf journey, but unfortunately it wasn't to be.

This was the first time using nipple shields and I have been breastfeeding my daughter for 21 months now. I thought I would try them just to see what the experience was like using shields and they was very easy to use. Fitted perfectly and my daughter didn't mind using them even though she has never used them before, she latched fine and nursed perfectly with them. I was happy that the shields were BPA free and easy to clean and store.

if it wasn't for these shields I would have been able to continue breastfeeding. They stopped me getting sore and cracked nipples. Would definitely recommend to anyone who is thinking of giving up breastfeeding

I have struggled with breastfeeding and pain when doing it, I found these really easy to use and wear. They're soft feeling and create a nice barrier. They're also really easy to clean, a really simple solution!
