Mine were the same way until I started breastfeeding. Had to use a nipple shield for about 2 weeks but be careful using one. They are hard to wean from and they can reduce your supply! Now my nips are out all the time because of all the sucking! 🙄

I would also try to see a lactation consultant. I'm sure they know how to deal with it

I've also seen like a little suction tube thing that helps pull them out. Not sure where I saw it.

the hospital might have those shields and also my son makes my nipple form the way he wants I'm guessing it's an instinct for most babies to do this with so it might be something you guys have to work on or come natural. good luck mama, you can do it @teenmommy53124

Yes you can! They have nipple guard and once the baby latches it sucks your nipple into the guard to make it out more if that makes sense. My cousin had flat/inverted nipples and uses a nipple guard (: I use one just because it gets more of my nipple in his mouth

Mine are kind of flat also, I just rub them a bit and they perk up just fine lol
