Does anyone breastfeed with a nipple shield? I've been using one for six weeks and want to wean her off of it, but I'm having trouble getting my daughter to take my breast without the shield. Any tips or advice?

@sunshine1, @cookiemonster1216, @junesmommy15, thanks for commenting ladies, I'm glad I'm not the only one who uses it! I don't mind using the shield, it actually helps keep my nipples from getting sore, it would just be nice to not have to take the stupid thing with me everywhere. I'd like to be able to just whip out my boob and feed my daughter instead of having to make sure I have the shield next to me to put on. I'll definitely keep trying to have her on just my breast, hoping it works out!
I had wanted to wean my daughter off the shield, but never succeeded. At 15mo, she still uses it. I wish I had some advice, but nothing worked for me. I just am thankful there was some way to help us, and I was able to bf at all.
I used a shield for about the first 5 weeks. All I can say is keep trying. My son was a little confused when I first started trying to wean him off but eventually he got the hang of it without a shield
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
My sweet baby girl gained her angel wings this morning. She was my best friend, my true love my everything. She was so happy and beautiful, I'm struggling to say good bye. Sleep tight princess, mummy and daddy love you very very much ❤️
Yeah that was my whole thing is it's a pain when you're out or traveling and having to constantly wash it especially during night feedings was not fun. Good luck and just keep trying!
