Latching to flat nipples

My left nipple is flat/maybe inverted. Y right side he latched amazingly to. He can latch to the flat nipple about 2/10 times. And he will latch and then fall off and then barely latch and then fall back off.

This is the nipple suction thing.

Both my nipples are kind of flat.. i twist them a little before latching my son or ill pump a little bit.. my son gets really frustrated at times & it takes him some time to get it

Medela therashells can help and you could wear it in you bra. Think I've seen a little suction thing that you can use instead of a pump. Keep trying though so that you get some stimulus to the breast.

Can you do nipple stimulation? Kind of pull on it and twist? I don't have inverted nipples so I don't know if that's even helpful, because I don't know if that would make them pop out. I just know that when my nipples get stimulated they pop up. Good luck.

That's usually what I do lol just shove it in.

I just can't use a pump first when I'm in public so it makes it more difficult.

I have flat nippples. What helped was not using a nipple shield at all and just shoving my whole nipple and areola in his mouth.

Maybe pump for like a minute first to get them pointed out? Then latch him

Why does he like to latch as if he's pinching my nipple 😭 I've gotten used to it now but damn he bruised my nipple at the beginning😅😥😑

cmjohnson3047 @mariapb yeah i have big tatas too and football hold always worked best for me
1st_time_wonder @cmjohnson3047 that's the hold I use the most
mariapb @1st_time_wonder, I have to kinda hold under my boob and push up a bit when it feels

I have questions for women who breastfed with flat nipples, and didn't use a nipple shield. How did you do it? My son didn't latch and I got really discouraged, I'm very determined to breastfeed my daughter without a nipple shield but I have flat nips and I want to know how you ladies did it!
