MAM Nipple Shields - Size Large 2s

MAM Nipple Shields are designed to provide short-term support for breastfeeding mothers experiencing sore, cracked, or inverted nipples, allowing them to continue breastfeeding comfortably while their nipples heal.

This product is Size Large. MAM Nipple Shields are available in various sizes (e.g., Small, Medium, Large) to accommodate different nipple diameters. It's important to choose a size that fits your nipple comfortably without compressing it, and where the shield fits well over your areola. Consulting a lactation consultant can help determine the best size for you.

After each use, wash the nipple shields in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. For sterilization, place the shield(s) in the provided travel case with 25ml of water, close the lid, and microwave for 3 minutes at 750-1000 watts. Always let them cool completely before handling or storing.

MAM Nipple Shields are designed to mimic the breast's natural feel and shape, making the transition back to direct breastfeeding easier once your nipples have healed. Most babies adapt back to direct breastfeeding without issues.

These shields are intended for short-term use to aid in the healing of sore nipples or to help with temporary latching difficulties. It's recommended to work with a lactation consultant to address the root cause of the issue and transition back to direct breastfeeding as soon as possible.

MAM Nipple Shields are made from extremely soft, extra-thin, and flexible silicone, ensuring comfort for the mother and safety for the baby.

Yes, the MAM Nipple Shields feature a specially shaped design that allows for continued skin-to-skin contact between the mother and baby during breastfeeding, promoting bonding and sensory stimulation.

Ensure the shield is correctly sized for your nipple and positioned centrally. Try moistening the rim of the shield slightly to improve suction. Encourage a wide-mouth latch, similar to direct breastfeeding.

Make sure your breast and the inside of the shield are completely dry before application to create a proper seal. Ensure the shield is not stretched or damaged, as this can affect adherence. Applying a tiny bit of water to the rim can also help suction.

Check that the shield is properly centered over your nipple and that your baby has a deep, effective latch. Sometimes, a different shield size might improve milk transfer. If concerns persist, consult a lactation consultant.

Ensure the nipple shield is the correct size and not causing additional friction. Verify that the shield is clean and undamaged. If soreness persists or worsens, consult a healthcare professional or lactation consultant to rule out underlying issues or evaluate your latch.
