Amazing product - LOVE IT Advantages: Less pain, helps latching on - your baby gets the milk! Disadvantages: Slides around/empties, baby can develop a preference for the shield I have inverted nipples which makes getting a proper latch almost impossible. My midwives suggested these and I think they were $6 from Shoppers Drug Mart here in Canada. I've seen this brand on ebay as well.

Too long for baby to latch on properly Advantages: Help sore nipples to heal Disadvantages: I found the baby just couldn't latch on properly and it was painful I tried the Avent nipple shields and found them way too long. The baby couldn't latch on properly because of their length - he kept biting the middle of my nipple instead of latching around it. The whole shield kept digging into my breast as he tried to suck, and I ended up getting blocked ducts for 2 days which was extremely painful. I think nipple shields do help some people, but this particular design didn't seem too good. Something shorter and ... ...I got blocked ducts, but it had never happened before and my baby is 6 weeks old. I had decided to try the nipple shields due to bruising and some cuts which the baby had generated from poor latching on anyway.
