MAM Nipple Shield | Large | 2 Pack | Comes in Sterilisable Travel Case | SkinSoft Silicone Familiar for Baby | Protects and Supports Breastfeeding

Quite simply wouldn't have been able to breastfeed without these as my babies mouth was so small she couldn't latch to my larger breast and flat nipple. She's now a very heathly 3 month old and hasn't yet had a drop of anything other than my breastmilk all via these, we're just now at the point of weaning her away from them as she's big enough now. They are abit of a faff, particularly when you're out, getting them on and making sure baby doesn't knock it off etc. and I find baby does end up dribbling alot with them so I tuck a muslin under my breast to catch it but otherwise they're absolute lifesavers and no woman should be ashamed to use them. Thankfully my supply has never been affected but I know this isn't the case for some women.

Allowed me to breastfeed my premature baby. Easy to clean and sterilise and little storage case is great for keeping them clean. Sizing is a bit tricky but once they fit, they are easy to use.

My baby wouldn't latch but instantly did with these. Since bought a different brand that are thicker and he wont even try them. 4 stars purely because they do get knocked off easily and I get covered in milk. But as he won't latch with others I can't compare. But very happy as they have given me the chance to breastfeed my baby.

I tried several different brands of nipple shield before me and my baby settled on these MAM ones. They are the only ones my son would easily latch onto in the early days of breastfeeding. I initially began using shields a day after giving birth as my son wouldn't latch onto my inverted nipples. He was also later diagnosed with tongue-tie and a high palate. These are the ones he seemed to find easiest and they also have the longest nipple part of the shields we tried. I ended up buying all sizes of this shield before deciding which were most effective. Finding the right size made a massive difference, not just in comfort but in my baby's ability to get milk from my breast. I have posted a comparison photo showing all sizes of nipple shield in relation to one another. The flat part of the shield is the same for all sizes it is only the nipple part that differs. For me, I found the small appeared to fit but gave me blood blisters and my son got very little milk from my breast. I found large to be most effective, I think because of my inverted nipples it helped to draw as much of the surrounding nipple into the shield as possible. They are easy to clean and sterilise, you can sterilise them in the case they come with and they are lasting well despite repeated cleaning. My son is 3 months old now and we are still using these shields. I use them whilst doing breast compressions to make it easier to remove milk as the shields act as a bit of a barrier. With the support of my local infant feeding team I intend to continue to use them as long as they are still working for us. These shields have made the difference between me being able to breastfeed or not so I cannot praise them enough!

Unfortunately I found these really rigid, as did baby. She was unable to latch due to this and I was left with a really sore nipple after just one use/feed. We had previously been using a boots own brand nipple shields and will be going back to these as much comfier and really soft which a more natural shape for her to latch to. These did stay in place really well though. If you're after a soft type shield which mimics a true nipple i would opt for a different type to these.

Great fit. Secured to the breast well with no slipping or leaking and the box makes it easy to store and carry with you. Size is important to avoid pain Highly recommend

Worked on the first try with a baby that struggled to latch for weeks. Awesome product

Too thin

Aunque son perfectas mi peque no terminó de pillarles el gusto así que no puedo opinar muy en profundidad. Muy finitas y fáciles de poner aunque a mí se me caían porque el niño se movía mucho y prefería el biberón.

My baby is now 5 months old. For the past 5 months, we have been on a breastfeeding roller coaster. We saw 4 lactation consultants. Baby girl had posterior tongue tie, high palate and "small mouth". She has a frenectomy and a lot of my pain was resolved, however ... her latch improved only slightly. She continue to slip off the breast repeatedly, getting more and more frustrated at the breast... she would cry and flail and scream bloody murder. We resorted to primarily exclusive pumping with some breastfeeding (while using Medela nipple shields) prior to naps (when she wasn't ravenous and sleepy enough not to get impatient). She gets a better latch with the Medela shields but still not great at all. She gets frustrated quite a bit, kicks and turns her head... then the Medela shield is slipping all over the place. Beyond frustrating for the both of us. The Medela shields are quite thick and the perfect cone shape is still hard for her to latch onto. It's been a journey and I'm surprised I haven't given up. I'm so glad I didn't. Baby girl has always liked her MAM soothers. I've tried a million soothers and she can't keep them in her mouth longer than 5 minutes. So I saw these MAM nipple shields online and went on the hunt for a place to buy them in Canada. Couldn't find a single seller... not even on Amazon. I contacted MAM themselves, they responded with "sorry, not available in Canada"... and offered no help. I was pretty bummed out. They sell everything else in Canada, why not their shields? I even gave them my sob story and told them how their soothers was all that my baby could keep in her mouth and that I was certain the shape of their shields would be helpful. OH WELL. ANYWAYS, then I see these lovely sellers from the UK are selling these shields on Amazon now. Bought a pack of 2 for around $12-15. My baby can finally latch!! She breastfeeds for 30-45 minutes... and she's not getting frustrated and wailing! I can't stress this enough... these shields are amazing. The shape stops my baby from slipping off... the thinness of the silicone allows her to trigger let down and the shield sticks to my breast SO MUCH better... it has wide wings that allow me to also hold it down when she's resituating without getting my fingers in her way. The tip of the nipple shield get ever so slightly thicker, creating sort of a "nub" at the tip.. and I honestly find this "nub" help get to grip the nipple and not slip off like she does with bare breast and the Medela shields. If you are having breastfeeding issues, give these a try. I am 20mm in Medela shields and size 2 in MAM shields. I hope my review helps at that one other mother with breastfeeding woes. Don't give up just yet! Try these. I'm 5 months in and we're moving into exclusive breastfeeding territory. 👀 Will update if opinion changes, but we've been using these for 2 months and we haven't looked back! 🤞🏼 15/02/21 UPDATE: We’ve made it through an entire year of breastfeeding ... all thanks to these shields!! I remember LC’s telling us that “nipple shields are not a long term solution.” They were for us! Without them, we would have had to stop.

Ho iniziato l’allattamento con i paracapezzoli di taglia uno (le ostetriche dell’ospedale me li avevano dati per allattare dopo che il mio bimbo aveva ripetutamente rifiutato il seno a causa del capezzolo piatto. ) Dopo un paio di settimane sono passata alla taglia 2, più congeniale per il mio voracissimo bambino e anche per il mio seno ( con la taglia uno mi erano venute alcune ragadi, erano troppo strette nella parte del capezzolo). Da allora sono passati oltre due mesi e il mio allattamento prosegue perfettamente e senza intoppi. Di fatto questi paracapezzoli hanno salvato il mio allattamento al seno.

At first I thought mine was size one. Just tried to order size two in case but it fit my nipplesperfectly and it works a lot better than Linsinoh. Such a life saver since my boy doesn’t know how to suck well :( . Anyway he’s a Mam fan , bottles and nipple shield are his favorite . Other brand is a No No for him hahaha

These have been a HUGE help in our breastfeeding journey. Baby had latch issues and was only able to use mam bottles. Regular nipple shields were a no go. One day I looked these up and he latched right away! Since then we've been able to transition off of them but I keep them just in case. Highly recommend them.
