Any moms here successfully breastfed with an inverted nipple??? I want to breastfeed so bad but I'm…

Nipple shields work really well for inverted nipples from what I've heard you can get them at wal mart or target

@santistevanmommie, Thanks!!!

You're welcome(:

yep! I use nipple shields for the same reason! Have been successfully breastfeeding for almost 2 months now. (:

@hitt_andrea, That's great!!! Do you still have to use the shields???

@babyvicky2016, I do. I did try and wean her off of the shields and on the bare breast but u was never able to get in more than a couple seconds of good latched eating before she would get upset. If you hope to breastfeed without the shields it can be done and you might have better luck than me.

Another quick question ladies. Should I purchase my own nipple shields before my induction this Sunday or do they give them to you in the hospital??? @hitt_andrea @santistevanmommie

I've heard some hospitals have them but to be on the safe side you should buy some anyway

@santistevanmommie, Yeah I think I'm going to definitely buy some just in case and I can always return them later if I don't need them. Thanks!!!

My hospital gave me one but you might need more than one because they are clear and easy to lose.

@hitt_andrea, Ok. Good to know. Thanks.

@hiit_andrea, @santistevanmommie -- have you mamas ever had any issues with supply while using the nipple shield? I've always had to use it and I am worried I am not getting the stimulation I need to keep my supply up
