Where do I get nipple shields? And which brand is best to use? I have inverted/flat nipplesπ’ I'm scared I won't get baby to latch on. I'm being induced on Monday night so I want to be prepared for when baby comes.
Make sure you only use the nipple shield to latch on, once baby has a good latch remove it. It acts as a barrier and slows down milk production, and can also cause nipple confusion. Babies latch onto the areola, not the nipple itself; so you should be just fine mama. :)
they should provide them in the hospital (: call L&D tomorrow and ask to make sure.
my hospital just gave me one
