Haakaa Nipple Shield: Support for Comfortable Breastfeeding
The Haakaa Nipple Shield (Triangle Base, 1 pack) is designed to help mothers overcome latch difficulties caused by cracked, flat, or inverted nipples. Its thumb-shaped orthodontic teat mimics a mother's natural nipple shape, making it easier for babies to accept, while the variable flow teat controls milk intake.
Soft Silicone for Comfort and Flex
Crafted from food-grade, BPA-free silicone, the shield is soft and comfortable for both mom and baby. The triangular base maximizes skin-to-skin contact and features an anti-slip ridged design for a secure grip during feeding.
How to Use the Haakaa Nipple Shield
Express a few drops of milk into the shield before attaching to encourage baby to latch. Then, squeeze the chamber, fold back the base, and center it over your nipple. As baby feeds, milk flows continuously into the extended teat. Hand wash in warm soapy water, rinse, and dry thoroughly.
This shield is particularly helpful for babies with latch difficulties and supports mothers who want to continue breastfeeding. It does not affect milk supply when used correctly.
