Review: Saved my breastfeeding journey - These were great. I bought them in desperation as my son’s latch is painful for the first 20-30 seconds and then settles. He is 3 weeks old and I really didn’t want to give up BF him. I do recommend that you see a lactation consultant or visit a local BF cafe to check for tongue tie or shallow latch before using these. Pain on initial latch is normal. Pain throughout the feed isn’t. Pros - makes it easier for baby to latch - reduces pain on initial latch - makes BF more comfortable - helps with the dread of feeding when initial latch is painful - helps with continuing BF during early weeks - protects nipples during first few weeks of BF or if your baby has been cluster feeding and your nipples are worn down Cons - can fall off or baby can knock them off your nipple if they’re worked up and very hungry - might be tricky when out and about and trying to feed a hungry baby as they can be fiddly to get on and keep on Overall I like having them as an option but I don’t use them all the time. They would be tricky when out and about as it’s a lot of effort to put them on and then get baby on. They can fall off too. The BF brigade don’t recommend them but do what works for you and your baby. These allowed me to carry on BF which can only be to my baby’s benefit.
Review: Saved my breastfeeding journey!! - If you’re experiencing a lot of nipple pain when latching seriously TRY THESE! I was about to give up breastfeeding due to excruciating pain from cracked and bleeding nipples, until a friend recommended these shields to me. I’d never even heard of nipple shields before. They allowed me to continue BF without the pain and over a couple of days my skin was able to fully heal. My baby is still able to achieve a full deep latch with no problems whatsoever, the flow from the shields is excellent, they’re super thin and easy to apply, and they’ve honestly just made breastfeeding feel like an enjoyable experience again. Just an absolute game changer and I wish I knew about them for my first baby. I’m going to continue to use them for the foreseeable future!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Well-designed and helpful for latch and nipple pain, but not a long-term solution
*by G***S on 30 August 2025*

The Medela Silicone Contact Nipple Shields (24 mm) are a thoughtfully designed tool for nursing mothers experiencing latch issues, nipple pain, or flat/inverted nipples. Made of ultra-thin, soft silicone and BPA-free, these shields provide a barrier without sacrificing much sensation or closeness. Pros: ✔ Soft, flexible material – Feels comfortable even on sore or cracked nipples. ✔ Open contact design – Allows for skin contact and maintains a natural breastfeeding experience. ✔ Good flow and latch support – Baby was able to latch more easily and feed efficiently. ✔ Comes with a hygienic storage case – Great for travel or tossing into the diaper bag. Cons: ✖ Can slip during feeding – You may need to hold it in place while latching. ✖ Not intended for long-term use – Best used as a short-term aid alongside lactation support. ✖ Cleaning requires care – While easy to rinse, the thin silicone can be damaged if not handled gently. Summary: This is a high-quality nipple shield that can make breastfeeding less painful and more manageable during the early struggles. It should be used as a temporary aid while working on resolving latch issues with professional guidance.
