When your at the hospital will they just give you nipple shields or do you have to ask for them? I didn’t get any with my first . And i have flat nipples so I’d like to have a few on hand but don’t want to buy if I’ll get them when i have him from the hospital

It depends. One hospital they wouldn't even let me use them in the hospital. The second they threw them at me lol

I got one at the hospital but had to in a hurry go get some more when I couldn't find the ONE I had. And very annoying to continuously wash it and keep track of it because it's see through. I would buy some and get a free one if they offer it. Lol

@babymay2016, i just don’t know what ones to get! The medela ones are expensive! 17$ for 2 😐

OH yeah that is the kind I had. That is very expensive. Wow maybe you should try Amazon and see if you can order online for cheaper.

The hospital gave them to me. My son can't latch on to my nipples without them. Just ask the hospital, call maybe
